| Directions: | ||
| 1. Directions for Pillows: 2. Combine the crab, avocado and the cream cheese. Mix in the remaining filling ingredients one at a time. 3. On a flat surface, lay out a won ton wrapper in front of you so that it forms a diamond shape. Wet the edges of the won ton. 4. Add a heaping teaspoon of filling to the middle, and spread it out toward the left and right points of the diamond so that it forms a log or rectangular shape (otherwise the wrapper may break in the middle during deep-frying). 5. Fold over the edges of the wrapper so that it forms a triangle shape. Seal the edges, adding more water if needed. 6. Cover the completed Pillow with a damp towel to prevent them from drying out while preparing the rest. 7. Heat wok and add oil for deep-frying. When oil is ready (the temperature should be between 360 - 375 degrees), carefully slide in the Pillow, taking care not to overcrowd the wok. Deep-fry until they are golden brown, about 3 minutes, turning once. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Cool the pillow before serving. 8. To make ahead of time, prepare the filling and stuff the won tons and freeze without deep-frying. When ready to cook, thaw before deep-frying.) 9. Hoisin Dipping Sauce: 10. Saute garlic in oil until fragrant. 11. Stir in remaining ingredients except peanuts. Remove from heat and let cool. Divide among individual bowls. Sprinkle with peanuts. 12. Traditional Dipping Sauce: 13. Use a blender or food processor to mix all of the ingredients into a puree. 14. Place a strainer (sieve) over a mixing bowl. Pour the pureed ingredients into the strainer, and use the back of a wooden spoon to press them through into the bowl. Discard any bean skins left in the strainer. 15. Pour the sauce into a jar with a tight fitting lid and refrigerate. (Will keep for about seven days). |
