Air Fryer Crab Rangoon
Using your air fryer is the perfect way to get that deep-fried texture without the oil.
The hot air in the air fryer circulated around the food giving it a crispy fried texture.
What Is The Best Air Fryer
This is tough. Depending on what you plan to use it for will depend what works best for you.
Vortex, Ninja Foodi, off brand air fryers are all options. The oven styles allow more room for your meal to cook at once.
Whereas a basket style will limit your space. But you can always batch cook and keep the cooked portion warm in the oven.
Can I Leave Out Crab in Crab Rangoon
Sure, if you don’t love crab you can easily leave it out. It will make fewer portions but still taste incredible.
Traditional style rangoons do use crab meat. You can buy lump crab at the store for this.
Tips For Making Air Fryer Crab Wontons
- Space | Make sure you leave space in between each Rangoon. If you don’t you will find that the pieces that touch will be undercooked.
- Batch Cook | Put the rangoons that are cooked into a pan and lightly cover with foil. Toss in a 200-degree oven and let them stay warm till ready to serve.
- Serve Fresh | Like any other Rangoon, you will find these are best when hot and fresh.
How Do You Make Crab Rangoons
Check out the recipe card for step by step instruction. The basic is you make filling and place to the side, then fold up or your dough and shape as I directed below.
What to Serve With Air Fryer Rangoons
- Rice
- Noodles
- Asian dish
- Chinese dish
- Etc
I found these Rangoons pair with almost any and everything.
Plus skipping frying in pot speeds up the process, they are not covered in grease and are super tasty,
Can You Refrigerate Leftover Rangoons
Sure you can refrigerate these Rangoons. Like I mentioned I like to eat fresh. As they sit they do get softer.
But even with a softer texture, they are still a tasty seafood appetizer or side dish for dinner.
What to Dip Rangoons In
Consider a sweet and sour sauce, spicy mustard, soy sauce, and more. Find any of your favorite and see how you like it,
These easy Rangoons are so easy, you can thank me later!
