Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 [12 oz package] wonton wrappers
- 1/2 bunch green onions (bottoms ONLY chopped)
- 1 garlic clove (chopped and smashed)
- 1 lb ground sausage
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
- 1/4 cup warm water
- salt
- pepper
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Cook the pork in a pan on medium heat. Salt and pepper.
- Once fully cooked, strain the meat in a bowl to get rid of the excess grease.
- As the meat is draining, place the pan back on the burner (set to medium-low this time), add the green onion bottoms, and the garlic. Cook until fragrant.
- Turn off the heat and re-add the cooked meat, soy, and Worcestershire Sauce.
- Pour into a bowl and let cool to room temp.
- Using a teaspoon, place a small amount of filling onto the center of a wonton wrapper.
- Take your finger and gently tap it into the water and wipe a small amount of the water onto each side of the wonton wrapper (dip your finger as many times as needed to get all sides damp).
- Fold the sides together in your choice of shape folding (see images on Blog Post). Make in batches that will fit in a single layer in your fryer (approximately 6-8 of them). If you make them too far ahead of time, the filling may leak through the bottom.
- Watching closely, fry in single layers, flip them so they are golden and crunchy on all sides. Even the square ones need to be flipped or held down for a few seconds to get golden brown.
- Once golden brown, remove and lay on a rack to “dry”.
- For best results, serve immediately with soy sauce or your fav sauce.
