Notes / Tips

  • Do not overfill the wontons, or they may burst while cooking.

  • Seal the edges tightly so the cream cheese stays inside.

  • Cook in batches if needed. Crowding the basket can make the wontons less crispy.

  • Spray lightly with oil for better browning and crunch.

  • Let them cool for 2–3 minutes before serving because the filling will be hot.

Variations

  • Crab Rangoon Style: Add finely chopped imitation crab or real crab meat to the cream cheese filling.

  • Spicy Cream Cheese Wontons: Add a little sriracha, chili flakes, or diced jalapeño to the filling.

  • Garlic Parmesan Wontons: Add grated parmesan and extra garlic powder for a savory cheese flavor.

  • Sweet Chili Wontons: Serve with sweet chili sauce and extra green onions on top.
