Potato Wontons Recipes

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:

• 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:

• Combine the pork, ginger, garlic, green onion, lime juice, crushed red pepper, sesame oil, and soy sauce in a food processor. Season mixture with salt and pepper. Pulse until pork is minced to the consistency of ground beef.
• Separate the wonton wrappers and lay them out on a clean surface. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture into the center of each wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wonton wrappers with water, fold over the filling to form a triangle, and press together to seal. Brush each wonton with egg white.
• Pour the peanut oil into a large pot and preheat to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C).
• Gently drop wontons into the hot oil and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove to paper towels to drain.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot halfway up with oil and heat to 365 degrees F. Cook the bacon in a large skillet, over medium heat, until crispy on both sides, about 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer onto paper towels to drain, and then roughly chop.
• Prepare the mashed potatoes according to package directions and then stir in half of the bacon, 2 tablespoons chopped chives, and half of the cheese. Let cool to room temperature.
• To shape the wontons, work with one wrapper at a time. Add about a teaspoon or two of the potato mixture in the center. Brush the edges with egg wash and then seal and crimp into a triangle. Fold 2 points together, brush with egg and pinch to seal. Continue shaping until all the filling has been used.
• Once vegetable oil is hot, carefully add a few of the wontons at a time and fry until golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate and continue frying the rest.
• To make the sauce, stir together the sour cream, garlic, salt, pepper and scallions. Set aside.
• Arrange the wontons onto a baking sheet, piling them up in the center. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bacon and bake in a 350 degree F oven for about 10 minutes, just to melt the cheese.
• Remove from the oven and sprinkle with remaining bacon and chives. Serve with scallion sour cream sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Add the potatoes, garlic cloves, and 1 teaspoon of salt to a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, until the potatoes are fork-tender.
• Drain the potatoes and garlic in a colander, and transfer to a bowl.
• Use a fork or potato masher to mash the potatoes.
• Add ½ tablespoon of butter, sour cream, Parmesan, and 2 teaspoons of salt to the potatoes and stir to combine.
• In a small pan, on medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the shallot, a pinch of salt, and pepper and stir.
• Once the shallots are golden brown, add the thyme and remove from the heat.
• Add the shallot mixture to the bowl of potatoes and mix to combine.
• Place 1 tablespoon of the potato mixture in the center of a wonton wrapper. Wet the tip of your finger and brush the edges of the wrapper, folding it in half on the diagonal, pressing down to secure both sides. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture.
• In a large pot, heat oil to 350˚F (180˚F).
• Fry the wontons in small batches until golden brown.
• Transfer the wontons to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Serve with sour cream.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

Steps:

• Heat butter in a skillet and saute onions until soft but not golden. Remove to a bowl and mix with mashed potatoes, cottage and cheddar cheeses.To fill: Take out a few wrappers, leaving others under a cloth to keep moist. Center a teaspoonful of filling of your choice on wrapper. Fold dough over the filling to form a semi- circle. Brush bottom edge of semi- circle only with water and press top edge over the top. Pinch the edges together well so that they come together. You can make top "pleats" or not, as you wish. Repeat with the other wrappers until you have created as many "stuffed pastas" as you wish. Freeze on trays, then stack in freezer bags, in portion sizes which make sense for your family. You can boil them straight from the freezer.
• To boil the meat stuffed pasta: Bring 2 cups each water and chicken broth to a boil. Add 2 grated carrots, 1 cup shredded bok choy or cabbage and simmer 2 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add meat dumplings and cook gently so filling does not explode for 3 to 4 minutes or until meat is cooked through. Serve with a ladleful of broth and vegetables, garnish with sliced scallion of chives. . To saute meat dumplings: Heat 1 tablespoon each of sesame and vegetable oil in 12-inch skillet. Add 12 dumplings and saute until crisp on one side, about 5 minutes. Cover and steam another 2 minutes or until filling is cooked through. Remove to a plate; fry more if needed. Serve with a sauce of soy mixed with rice vinegar, sugar and scallion. Note you can also deep fry them for about 2 to 3 minutes or until golden. To boil potato stuffed pastas: Boil in salted water for 7 to 8 minutes or until they float to the top. Drain and serve with melted butter and or sour cream and chopped chives.
• To fry potato stuffed pastas: Saute in a mixture of butter and oil for about 3 minutes per side or until each side is delicately crisp and interior is hot. Serve with butter and grated cheese or sour cream and more cottage cheese.

Steps:

• Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the thyme, garlic and onion. Cook, stirring, until the onions are golden, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil.
• Add the potatoes, cheese and sour cream to a small bowl and mix, then set aside.
• Working one at a time, lay out a wonton wrapper and use your finger to dampen the edge of the wrapper with water. Place 1 tablespoon of the potato mix in the center of the wrapper. Fold into a triangle, sealing the edges and pushing out as much air as possible. Set aside and repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
• Drop the dumplings into the salted water and cook until they rise to the surface, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and add to the skillet with the onions. Cook until the dumplings are golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Deglaze with the white wine, allowing it to boil and reduce, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley and remaining 5 tablespoons butter. Continue to stir until the butter is melted and you have a glossy sauce. Serve immediately garnished with more parsley.

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:

• In a frying Pan, cook the bacon till golden. Drain on paper towels, reserving the bacon drippings. Add the chopped onion to the bacon drippings and cook till the onions are translucent and soft, making sure to not let them burn. Now add the mashed potatoes, stirring, on a low heat till the onions are incorporated. With a fork, incorporate the salt, onion powder and pepper into the onion/potato mixture. Cover and cook on low for about 10 minutes---mashed potatoes burn quickly. Take off the heat and add the crumbled bacon from earlier, fold in gently with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Once everything is incorporated the filling can be set aside or covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated, for up to a week, or till you are ready to assemble the wontons for frying.
• When ready to assemble wontons, first, beat the two eggs using a fork, in a small dish. Then, working on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, so the wontons don't stick while awaiting frying, start with a single wonton wrapper, and use a pastry brush to line the perimeter of the wrapper with an egg wash. Then spoon a small spoonful of the mashed potato/bacon filling in the center of the wrapper. Seal the ends shut to form a triangle and set on the cookie sheet. Once each cookie sheet is filled with 18-24 Wontons, they may be, again, covered in plastic and refrigerated again, until you are ready to start frying.
• Pour the oil into an electric skillet and preheat. On medium, fry the wontons till they are golden brown. Drain on paper towels and let cool for at least 30 minutes.

Steps:
