Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 0.5 cups Raisins
- 0.5 cups Walnuts
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.25 cups Sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoons Water
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Finely chop the raisins and walnuts. Combine them in a mixing bowl along with cream cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly incorporated to create the wonton filling.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of each wrapper.
Brush the edges of each wonton wrapper with the egg wash. Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal tightly. You can also pleat or crimp the edges for a decorative seal.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or saucepan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully fry the wontons in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 1–2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the wontons using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
To make the cheese honey mustard sauce, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, and sharp cheddar cheese in a bowl. Stir until smooth and creamy. If needed, microwave for 10–15 seconds to gently melt the cheese and allow everything to combine well.
Serve the wontons warm with the cheese honey mustard sauce on the side for dipping.
