Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup crab meat (fresh, canned, or imitation crab, finely chopped)
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 package egg roll wrappers
  • Oil for frying (vegetable or canola)

Optional Add-ins:

  • A pinch of cayenne pepper for heat
  • Dash of sesame oil for flavor depth
  • Sweet chili sauce for dipping

Tools You’ll Need

  • Mixing bowl
  • Frying pan or deep fryer
  • Slotted spoon or tongs
  • Paper towels (for draining)

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Make the filling – In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, crab meat, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and garlic until well combined.
  2. Fill the wrappers – Place 2 tablespoons of filling in the center of each egg roll wrapper. Fold in the sides, then roll tightly, sealing edges with a dab of water.
  3. Heat the oil – In a deep skillet or fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).
  4. Fry the egg rolls – Cook 2–3 rolls at a time until golden brown and crispy, about 3–4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  5. Serve & enjoy – Pair with sweet and sour sauce, duck sauce, or sweet chili dipping sauce.

Storage & Reheating

  • Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Freezer: Freeze uncooked egg rolls on a baking sheet, then transfer to a bag. Fry from frozen (add 1–2 minutes).
  • Reheat: Best reheated in the oven or air fryer to keep them crispy.

Tips for Success

  • Don’t overfill the wrappers—less is more for clean rolling.
  • Keep wrappers covered with a damp towel while working so they don’t dry out.
  • Use a thermometer to maintain oil at 350°F for even frying.

Variations

  • Add shredded mozzarella or Monterey Jack for a cheesier filling.
  • Swap crab for shrimp or lobster for a luxe version.
  • Bake instead of fry for a lighter take (400°F for 15–18 minutes).
