Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Salmon fillet
- 100 grams Cream cheese
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 30 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Cook the salmon fillet in a pan over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Allow it to cool slightly, then flake it into small pieces using a fork.
In a medium bowl, combine the flaked salmon, cream cheese, finely chopped green onions, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Prepare a clean work surface and lay out the wonton wrappers. Place about 1 teaspoon of the salmon mixture in the center of each wrapper.
Using your finger or a small brush, lightly wet the edges of a wonton wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle and press the edges together to seal. Optionally, fold the two bottom corners of the triangle together for a decorative look.
Repeat the folding and sealing process with the remaining wrappers and salmon filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F). To test, drop a small piece of wonton wrapper into the oil; if it sizzles and rises to the surface, the oil is ready.
Fry the wontons in small batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook each batch for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the salmon wontons warm with your choice of dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
