• Meanwhile, combine the cream cheese, crabmeat, chives and soy sauce in a medium bowl. Season with black pepper.
• Place 1/2 tablespoon crab mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper. Brush the edges of the wonton with the beaten egg. Fold in the opposite corners toward each other and pinch to seal tightly over the filling, squeezing out any extra air.
• Fry the crab rangoon in batches, about 3 to 4 minutes per batch, flipping as necessary with a spider until golden on all sides. Drain on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Reserve while you make the fried rice.
• For the fried rice: Lay out all of the prepped mise en place in the order in which you will add the ingredients to the wok. Preheat a wok over high heat.
• Add 1 tablespoon peanut oil to the wok. Add the shrimp in an even layer and season with salt. Cook, turning once, until just starting to turn pink, about 90 seconds. Reserve to a plate.
• Add 1 tablespoon peanut oil to the wok. Add the garlic, ginger, scallion whites and dried chiles and stir-fry until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add the rice and cook for 2 minutes, without disturbing too much so you get a nice crust. Push the rice to the side, leaving an empty space. Add another drizzle of peanut oil if needed. Add the egg, let set for about 30 seconds, then scramble. Toss everything together, then add the peas and carrots. Cook for another minute, then add the reserved shrimp, bean sprouts, soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss for 1 minute. Add the green parts of the scallions.

CRAB FRIED RICE

Steps:

• 1. Cook your rice according to package directions. I like white rice best for this, but we have also used brown rice and it was still tasty. In a very large frying pan or wok, cook your bacon. The bacon should be just cooked, not crispy, since it will be cooked again when you fry the rice.
• 2. While the bacon is cooking, trim the asparagus, removing the woody ends. Bring a pot of water to a boil, and blanch the asparagus. This means to cook the asparagus for about 2 minutes, then drain immediately and put the asparagus in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. You'll want to cut the asparagus into bite size pieces, 1-2" long, either before or after you blanch them.
• 3. Once the bacon is done cooking, pull it out of the pan and cut into pieces, about 1" or so each. Set aside. Keep the bacon drippings. If you don't have very much drippings, add some vegetable oil to the pan and heat it up at this point. You want maybe 3-4 tablespoons of oil. Add the sliced shitake mushrooms, chopped green onions and minced garlic. Cook until tender, maybe 3 or so minutes on high heat. Add the crab, asparagus and the bacon to the pan and stir to combine. Whip the eggs and add to the pan, stirring quickly to spread throughout the dish.
• 4. Add the rice and keep stirring to combine and cook evenly. Finally, add the sriracha sauce to taste, and stir to combine. Lastly, chop the butter into small pieces and add to the rice to gloss the dish. Serve immediately, garnish with cilantro and lemon slices.
