Those looks a bit like these
Back on subject, a recipe would be great. They look pretty easy. Reminded me of the street markets of Southall as a Kid, seeing Pakistani guys make and throw samosas into a heated bowl.
I got a wierd thing about the ocean. like, do you know anyone who never peed in the ocean? Me neither. And, I don't do recipes I do guides. Nobody follows recipes anyway.
Watch how they make it here: http://www.eatmedaily.com/2009/07/traumatizing-imitation-crab-manufacturing-video/
Exactly, imitation crab meat made from surimi which is basically the hamburger of the fish world.
those are good... we just call them cream cheese won-tons in my area... i only like them with cheese cream and a bit of finely-chopped green onion, though.
i use to make them into a FAT ball with a four-cornered top... packed with a ton cream cheese...
...damn... i'm going to make them again ASAP.
well, thanks. Now I can't eat that anymore. For some reason I thought it was soy or tofu.
Tofu is soy.
You are a little right about the fact that people seldom follow methods posted here, but they do add to the collective content of the site, and even though nobody will follow them precisely, they do inspire and educate. Thanks for the pics, they give a good idea of what you are talking about, and I suggest that anyone interested in making this just start with about a half pound of both surimi and cream cheese, then freestyle it from there. Seal the rangoons by wetting the edges of the wrappers with a moist finger or pastry brush and pressing lightly after they are folded. Make sure there is no air inside with the filling, otherwise they will explode. Deep frying in an open pot at home is a great way to weed out the idiots from our world, so I will offer no advice in that regard.
I like these better with decent quality fake crab better than I like them with manky canned crab, same for things like stuffed mushroom caps, so unless you are willing to throw down for some frozen crab meat, surimi will give a decent result.

Do you have self esteem issues. I am pointing out truths about the topic. If you can't handle being wrong then you are in for a rough life.

Goes well with some double cream. Whip it up if you are feeling fancy.
