Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets Wonton wrappers
- 2 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the wonton wrappers. Stack them and cut them into 1/2-inch wide strips using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors.
Pour the vegetable oil into a deep frying pan or skillet, ensuring it reaches a depth of at least 1 inch. Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). If you don’t have a thermometer, test the oil by dipping one strip into it; if it sizzles and floats, the oil is ready.
Carefully add a small batch of wonton strips to the hot oil. Fry them in batches to prevent overcrowding, which can cause uneven cooking.
Fry each batch of strips for about 1-2 minutes, turning them occasionally with a slotted spoon or tongs, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once fried, remove the wonton strips with a slotted spoon and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Sprinkle the fried wonton strips immediately with salt and ground black pepper while they are still hot, ensuring even seasoning.
Allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the fried wonton strips as a crispy appetizer, soup garnish, or salad topping.
