How To Make Wontons Recipes

Steps:

• Combine pork, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and vegetables in a bowl.
• Separate wonton skins.
• Place a heaping teaspoon of filling in the center of the wonton.
• Brush water on 2 borders of the skin, covering 1/4 inch from the edge.
• Fold skin over to form a triangle, sealing edges.
• Pinch the two long outside points together.
• Heat oil to 450 degrees and fry 4 to 5 at a time until golden.
• Drain and serve with sauce.

Steps:

• In a bowl mix together pork mince, cabbage, spring onions and chillies.
• Add garlic, ginger, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce and sesame oil; stir until well combined.
• Separate wonton wrappers and lay on a clean surface.
• Place 1- 2 teaspoons of mixture in centre of each wrapper; brush edges with water.
• Bring corners of wrappers together and pinch tightly to seal.
• Bring a saucepan of water to the boil, place a bamboo steamer lined with greaseproof paper on top.
• Place 5- 6 wontons in steamer and steam over simmering water for about 8 minutes, or until cooked.
• Serve with soy sauce or dipping sauce of choice.

Steps:

• For the dipping sauce: Mix together the honey, soy sauce, Sriracha, vinegar and sesame oil in a small bowl and set aside.
• For the wontons: In the bowl of a mixer (or you can do it by hand), mix together the cream cheese, Sriracha and green onions until totally combined (scrape the mixer bowl if necessary). In a separate bowl, mix together the egg and 1/2 cup water.
• One at a time, assemble the wontons: Place approximately 1/2 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture on one corner of a wonton wrapper. Use your finger to "paint" the egg wash all around the edges of the wrapper. Roll the wrapper on a diagonal, starting with the cream cheese corner and stopping when half the wrapper is rolled and the cream cheese mixture is inside. Bring up the 2 ends and use the egg wash to stick them together. Allow the remaining pointed end to naturally tuck backward. (The wontons should resemble tortellini.) As you work, place the assembled wontons under plastic wrap or a light towel to keep them from drying out.
• Heat 2 to 3 inches of vegetable oil in a large saucepan or medium skillet until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil registers just under 350 degrees F. (You don't want the oil too hot or it will burn the wontons! Experiment with a spare sheet of wonton wrappers to check.)
• In batches of 4 or 5 at a time, fry the wontons for 45 seconds to 1 minute, flipping carefully midway through to make sure they brown evenly. Remove them when you think they still could stand to slightly brown a teeny bit more (because they will slightly brown in the seconds after you remove them from the pan!). Drain the wontons on a paper towel. Repeat with the remaining batches.
• It's best to wait 5 to 10 minutes before serving the wontons, as the cream cheese filling can be quite hot. Serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; saute for 5 to 7 minutes. Add beef, cumin, salt, and pepper; cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• Pour beef mixture into a large bowl and add sour cream and Monterey Jack cheese. Mix well.
• Lay out wonton wrappers and add 1 teaspoon of filling to each. Wet your fingertips and seal wraps, folding ends diagonally and folding and pinching corners.
• Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Deep-fry wontons in the hot oil, 2 to 3 minutes each. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Combine pork, water chestnuts, green onions, soy sauce, cornstarch, salt and ginger in medium bowl; mix well. Place 1/2 teaspoonful pork mixture in center of each wonton skin. Fold wonton skin over filling to form a triangle. Turn top of triangle down to meet fold. Turn over; moisten 1 corner with water. Overlap opposite corner over moistened corner; press together firmly.
• Heat oil in wok or large saucepan over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F. Deep-fry wontons, a few at a time, 2 to 3 minutes, or until brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels. Serve warm with ketchup and mustard or sweet & sour sauce, as desired.

Steps:

• Mix together the pork, prawns, spring onions, garlic, ginger, oyster sauce, oil and water chestnuts.
• Peel off a wonton wrapper and, with a pastry brush, lightly brush round the outside with cold water. Place 1 tsp of mixture in the centre and scrunch up into a pouch, squeezing to seal. Do not overfill. Repeat until you have around 35-40. (These can be chilled for up to 1 hr on a tray lined with baking parchment.)
• For the sauce, mix together the soy sauce, sherry and ginger in a small bowl. To steam, bring a large pan of water to the boil. Line a bamboo or metal steaming basket with lettuce leaves to fit.
• Arrange half the pouches in the basket (without them touching), cover and steam for 5 mins. Remove with tongs to a platter and steam the rest - check the water level. Serve, sprinkled with spring onion or sesame seeds, with the bowl of sauce.
