Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 1 tsp Soy sauce
- 30 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl, add the cream cheese and let it soften to room temperature.
2. Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the green onions.
3. Combine the softened cream cheese, minced garlic, green onions, and soy sauce in the bowl. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
4. Lay out one wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center.
5. Dip your fingertip into the water and run it along the edges of the wonton wrapper.
6. Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Optionally, press the edges again with a fork for a decorative crimp.
7. Repeat the process with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
8. In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
9. Carefully add a few wontons into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
10. Fry the wontons for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown, flipping them halfway through for even cooking.
11. Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
12. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce, such as sweet chili or soy sauce.
