Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Pork Wontons.
Step 1
To start your delicious wonton adventure, grab a medium bowl and mix together the ground pork, chopped green onions, chopped water chestnuts, soy sauce, cornstarch, salt, and freshly grated ginger.
Step 2
Stir everything together until the mixture is well combined and bursting with flavor.
Step 3
Now, take a wonton skin and place about half a teaspoon of your savory pork mixture right in the center.
Step 4
Gently fold the wonton skin over the filling to create a triangle shape, making sure to press the edges firmly to seal in all that goodness.
Step 5
For an extra touch, fold the top of the triangle down to meet the base, then flip the wonton over.
Step 6
Moisten one corner with a little water, and bring the opposite corner over to overlap it, pressing down firmly to secure your wonton.
Step 7
Repeat this delightful process with the remaining wonton skins and filling until you have a beautiful batch ready to fry.
Step 8
Next, heat some vegetable oil in a wok or large saucepan over medium-high heat until it reaches a sizzling 375°F (190°C).
Step 9
Carefully add a few wontons to the hot oil, letting them fry for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until they turn a gorgeous golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Once they’re perfectly cooked, remove the wontons and let them drain on paper towels to soak up any excess oil.
Step 11
Serve these crispy delights warm, and enjoy every bite of your homemade wontons!.
