INGREDIENTS

  • Filling

    • 1 pound ground pork
    • 🌱 1 cup diced celery
    • 🥕 1 cup shredded carrot
    • 🧅 1 cup diced onion
    • 🧄 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 🧂 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
    • 🍶 ¼ cup soy sauce

  • Wrapper and Binders

    • 1 (14 ounce) package wonton wrappers
    • 🥚 2 eggs, beaten

  • Cooking Oil

    • 1 quart canola oil for frying

STEPS

1

Mix together ground pork, celery, carrot, onion, and garlic in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and soy sauce; mix with your hands until well blended.

2

Separate the wonton wrappers and lay them out on a clean surface. Spoon 1 teaspoon pork mixture into the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wonton wrappers with beaten egg, fold over the filling to form a triangle, and press together to seal. Place the finished wontons on a baking sheet.

3

Heat canola oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C).

4

Fry wontons, about 6 at a time, in hot oil until golden brown and they float to the top, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

💡 Keep the wonton wrappers covered with a damp cloth while working to prevent them from drying out.For an extra flavor kick, serve with a side of sweet chili sauce or soy vinegar dip.Do not overcrowd the pan when frying—the oil temperature can drop, leading to greasy wontons.
