Instructies
- In a bowl, stir together the drained crab meat, cream cheese, and Thai sweet chili sauce until well combined.
- Slice the wonton wrappers into quarters.
- In a skillet over medium heat, add cooking oil and lightly fry the wonton quarters until crisp.
- Flip them as soon as the edges start to curl, and then again about 2-3 minutes later to ensure they stay flat.
- Remove the fried wontons from the skillet and place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Butter one side of each slice of bread.
- If using Cheddar cheese, add 1/8 of sliced cheese to each of four slices of bread.
- Evenly divide the crab mixture on top of the cheese.
- Place two fried wontons on top of the crab mixture on each slice of bread.
- Top each with the remaining cheese slices and another slice of bread.
- Cook the sandwiches at 325°F for four minutes on each side, using a melting dome if available.
- Serve hot and enjoy the delicious fusion of flavors!

Wine Advice:
Pair this unique and flavorful sandwich with a glass of crisp, dry white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio. The wine’s acidity will cut through the richness of the cream cheese and Cheddar, while its lightness will complement the delicate crab flavor. Enjoy the delightful combination!
