Ideal as an appetizer or party snack, these wontons deliver an irresistible crunch and rich, customizable flavors that everyone will love.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Filling

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

For Assembly and Frying

  • About 40 wonton wrappers
  • Water (for sealing wrappers)
  • Vegetable oil (for deep frying, enough for at least 2 inches in pot)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, finely chopped green onions, minced garlic and ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Stir everything thoroughly until well blended to create a harmonious flavor mixture.
  2. Assemble the Wontons: Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place a small spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, fold into triangles or squares, and press firmly to seal and prevent leaks during frying.
  3. Heat the Oil for Frying: Pour cooking oil into a deep fryer or heavy pot, enough for deep frying, and heat to about 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to maintain the temperature for perfectly crispy wontons without absorbing too much oil.
  4. Fry the Wontons: Fry the wontons in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Cook each batch for 2–3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain excess oil on a paper towel-lined plate.
  5. Serve Immediately: Serve these crispy wontons hot with your favorite dipping sauces like sweet chili, soy-ginger, or peanut sauce for extra zest.

Notes

  • Dry wrappers thoroughly before sealing to avoid sogginess.
  • Do not overfill wrappers to prevent bursting during frying.
  • Maintain oil temperature consistently at 350°F (175°C) for perfect crispiness.
  • Fry in small batches to avoid temperature drops and uneven cooking.
  • Let fried wontons rest on a wire rack for a minute or two to keep them crisp.
