Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces vegan shrimp
- 4 ounces vegan cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons scallions
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 24 pieces wonton wrappers
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
Chop the vegan shrimp into small pieces and place them into a mixing bowl.
Add the vegan cream cheese, soy sauce, finely chopped scallions, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil to the bowl with the chopped vegan shrimp.
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined to form a consistent filling.
Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface and place about one teaspoon of the filling in the center of each wrapper.
Lightly moisten the edges of each wrapper with water using your finger or a pastry brush.
Fold each wonton into a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal, making sure there are no air pockets.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat until it reaches around 350°F (175°C).
Fry the wontons in batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan, for about 3-4 minutes or until they are golden and crispy.
Once fried, remove the wontons from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
