I omitted the ginger root,soy sauce and dried parsley. I replaced the crab meat for imitation lobster. It was fantastic!! Mild, but lobster flavor was just right.

This is a wonderful recipe. This was the first time I made crab rangoons and this recipe if fool proof. And it tastes just right! I used a pound of imitation crabmeat and just added it as is into my kitchen aid mixer and the mixer took care of the shredding for me. =) Very tasty. My husband and daughter loved them.

My family loved these! I substituted green onions and garlic for the cilantro and parsley and they turned out great.

These are just okay. I tried the recipe as is the first time, but then I adjusted it because we thought there was too much crab. I just couldn't seem to get the mixture right, and I just don't think it tastes as good as the crab rangoon I can buy. It's just not worth the hassle.

I love these!! The 2nd time around I reduced the crabmeat to 1/4 lb., added a dash of lime juice, minced garlic, and a smidge of chopped onion. I've made these over and over again. A+ in my book!

WOW! These were good! I usually do my Crab puffs with coctail sauce, green onion, garlic & cream cheese but we really enjoyed the Asian kick these offer. We did sub green onion for cilantro (which I love but not everybody else does) and also added minced garlic. We used all 50 wonton wrappers and still had some filling left over so we have been spreading it on crackers today. Also, a whole pound of crab meat is not needed. This recipe is fine with about 8oz and helps keep the cost down. Voted as our favorite New Years eve appetizer and we made several--Delicious!!

This was a good recipe but much more complicated that what I normally would do. The result was pretty good. I prefer the easier way in that I simply mix up softened cream cheese, a bit of garlic and onion powder, sliced green onions and crabmeat for the filling. I place a small ball in the middle of the wonton and continue to fry up. Delicious and so easy.

These were a little bit of a disappointment--nothing like the crab rangoon I've had in countless Chinese restaurants. First, folding the won ton wrappers, for me--was not as intuitive as the recipe seems to imply. Second, the dark soy sauce overpowers the flavor and appearance of the mixture. Recipe writers shouldn't assume--beginners won't always intuitively understand instructions. The flavor wasn't all bad and the frying part was fine, but the shape of my crab rangoon looked like it was done by a pre-schooler.

I love crab rangoon, and was very happy to discover a recipe for them. After reading all the other reviews, I made some of the adjustments that others had suggested (added garlic, and replaced cilantro with green onions). I was kind of skeptical about if they would taste as good as the restaurants', but MAN OH MAN!!!! They are WONDERFUL. Even better than the local restaurants'. I love that I can freeze them, and cook them up whenever I want. Hint though, if you freeze them, spray your pan with cooking spray, or they tend to stick and end up with no bottoms!! Now if only I can find a really good recipe for the rest of the chinese dishes I like, I will never have to pay restaurant prices!!!!

Superb Recipe! Me, my mom and my boyfriend ate till our stomachs we ready to burst!! For me this was a very unique taste. Glad I tried it. I also added to the mixture some hot red peppers and I halved the soysauce because of what the other reviewers said. And also because I couldn't find wonton wrappers I just wrapped them in spring roll wrappers.

This was FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!! I made them for a Chinese New Year's party -- and they were a HIT! I don't think they were too salty at all. I did make a few changes though. I used green onion instead of cilantro. I used ground ginger instead of fresh. I also added garlic powder because I love garlic. And I used Louis Kemp instead of fresh crab meat. Also, I made these the night before and kept them refridgerated till I was ready to fry them...that worked out very nicely!!! If you like Crab Rangoon..I think you will LOVE this recipe!

Oh my, yummy, excelent, delish, AMAZING!! When the local grocery store stopped selling crab rangoon, everybody went nuts. Being the cook in the family i had to find a recipe and make it. Here it is, better than store bought. Thanks to this recipe i am an angel to my family. Since it is a lot of work, i double the recipe. Make it all up, then freeze it prepared. Then all you have to do is pop them into the fryer and viola!!

These were pretty good. I made the night before and reheated for 10 min at 200. Not as good fresh, but still tasty. Folded into envelopes so the mix didn't leak out. Served with duck sauce. Edit: I made them again today (12/04) and they turned out perfect! Here's what I did different: Used fresh parsley, added 1 tsp. chopped green onion, 1 1/2 T. La Choy soy sauce (cause I think it's less salty), sprinkle of salt, pepper & garlic salt, grated fresh ginger on microplane, 1 & 1/2 pkgs of cream cheese, 12 oz. of real crab meat, and 1 lb. package of egg roll wraps, cut in 1/4. My mixture came out perfect against the amount of wraps. I folded into envelope shape, dabbed w/ water and froze extra between sheets of wax paper. As a side note, the egg roll wraps are in the produce area of your grocer and I found fresh crab meat in a foil pouch by my seafood area (I live in the Midwest). My grocer said the crab is seasonal for the holidays... it it produced by Blue Star. I stocked up on the crab since it's good for over a year. Hope this helps everyone!

These were definitely lacking in something. I kept adding and adding and it tasted good in the mixing bowl--but, once I fried them, the taste was GONE! It tasted NOTHING like any crab rangoons I have ever tasted and I was very disappointed. I was so proud to have made them LOOK exactly like the ones in the restaurants, but it was a waste of time. I stll have these in the freezer and made them two weeks ago.
