Crispy Wontons

Crispy Wontons

1 lb ground pork

6 green onions, finely chopped

1 tsp ground ginger

2 tsp soy sauce

2 tsp sesame oil

1 pkg wonton wrappers

Cooking oil

Kosher salt

In a medium bowl mix together first five ingrediants. 

Lay 1 wonton wrapper on work surface. Place approximately 1 1/2 tsp of pork filling in the centre of the wrapper. With wrapper placed as a diamond brush top upside down V with water. Fold up bottom of the diamond to form a triangle. Press edges firmly together to seal. Bring opposite corners together under filling and press firmly together. Repeat with remaining filler and wrappers keeping filled wontons covered with a damp tea towel. You should have approximately 40 wontons depending on how much you use in each one. 

In a medium sized pot, add enough oil to measur approximately 2 inches deep. Heat oil to 375 degrees over medium high heat. 

Carefully add wontons to hot oil making sure not to crowd them. I do 6 at a time based on the pot I use. Fry for 2 minutes and turn over wontons and fry an additional minute or until lightly browned. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel lined plate to drain off the excess oil. Sprinkle with a small amount of salt.

OR

Brush each wonton with oil and cook in Air Fryer for 10 minutes at 375 degrees, turning once halfway through or until golden.  

Continue until all wontons are cooked and serve.
