Fried Pork Wontons (chicken works too!)


Love this as appetizer or a snack while watching sports. It is super fast and easy and kids love them too.













Start by seasoning some ground pork with garlic, green onions, salt, pepper and sesame oil. Let sit for 1 hr, covered in the fridge.














Remove the seasoned meat from the fridge. Get your egg rolls wraps from the fridge at this time as well. The wraps can be found at your local grocer in the refrigerated sections.











Get a small bowl of warm water ready. Place a fork full of the meat mixture in the bottom corner of the wrap.













Wet the bottom edges of the with the warm water and fold the bottom up (as shown) and press any air out of the pocket or this will open when you fry it. Once this is sealed place on a plate and repeat until you have prepared all of your wrap bundles of pork.









Fry in Crisco oil at 325 degrees until crispy. Do not over crowd your pan. I fry them in patches of 2 and when they are golden brown transfer them to paper towel.












Let these cool for a few minutes as they will be piping hot! Serve with plum and chili garlic sauce.
