In a medium mixing bowl, combine ground pork, green onion, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well blended.
Prepare a clean work surface. Lay out several won ton wrappers at a time (keeping the rest covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying).
Place about 1 teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of each won ton wrapper.
Brush the edges of each wrapper lightly with the beaten egg using a pastry brush or your fingertip.
Fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal. For an optional decorative touch, crimp the edges or fold the corners inward.
Repeat the process until all the pork mixture and wrappers are used.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat to approximately 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Carefully place a few won tons at a time into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning once halfway through.
Remove cooked won tons with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or spicy mustard. Enjoy!
