Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces wonton wrappers
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 cups vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, green onions, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Place about 1 teaspoon of the cheese filling in the center of each wonton wrapper.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg with the water to make an egg wash.
Brush the edges of a wonton wrapper lightly with the egg wash.
Fold the wonton wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal. If necessary, pinch the edges to ensure there are no gaps.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully lower a few wontons into the oil at a time, frying for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, flipping halfway through cooking.
Remove the wontons using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining wontons.
Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce, ranch dressing, or spicy mayo.
