Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground pork
- ¼ cup green onions thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 12 ounces square wonton wrappers
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Sweet and sour sauce for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, ginger paste, and minced garlic. Mix until well combined.
- Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of the wrapper.
- Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water using your finger or a small brush. Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle and press the edges firmly to seal. Fold the two bottom corners of the triangle together and press to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the wontons in batches, careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
- Serve warm with sweet and sour sauce, if desired.
