Strawberry Rangoons
Ingredients
6–8 fresh small strawberries
1/4 cup strawberry cream cheese spread
12 won ton skins (from Produce)
Plastic wrap
3 tablespoons canola oil
Cinnamon sugar blend (optional)
Prep
- Cut strawberries into small 1/4-inch-pieces (about 1/4 cup); place in small bowl.
Steps
- Stir cream cheese in gently until blended.
- Lay won ton skins flat. Place about 1 teaspoon of the strawberry mixture in center; do not over fill. Moisten a 1/4-inch-strip along outside edge; fold one corner over filling to opposite corner to form a triangle. Press edges together tightly to seal; repeat with remaining skins. Cover with plastic wrap; set aside until ready to cook.
- Preheat oil in large sauté pan on medium-high 3–4 minutes. Add 3–4 rangoons (do not crowd pan); cook 1–2 minutes on each side or until crisp and golden. Drain on absorbent paper; cook remaining rangoons. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, if desired, and serve warm.

Aprons Advice
- Complete your meal with rice, chow mein noodles (to top salad), and egg rolls.
- Cooking the rangoons in small batches is important; crowding the pan will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy rangoons.
