crab ragoon - karmelkake - 08-21-2007

Good morning I am new to forum but desperately need recipe from aprox 3 yrs. ago . probably the only issue I can't find for crab ragoon with a pineapple dipping sauce. I suggested them for a party I am doing on 9/1/07 and now can't find recipe. I made them and everyone loved them. It was in an issue featuring crab 3 ways i think.

Blend cream cheese, cilantro, scallion, ginger, sugar, jalapeño, and lime juice in a bowl; gently fold in crab.

Arrange wonton skins on a work surface. Place 1 teaspoon of crab mixture in center of each, then moisten edges with water. Fold to form a triangle, pressing to seal. Moisten the outer corners of the triangle, seal together to form a "hat," and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Heat oil to 350° in a pan over med.-high.
