Fried wontons are a popular appetizer or snack originating from Chinese cuisine, widely enjoyed for their crispy texture and savory filling. These bite-sized delights are made by wrapping a mixture of ground meat, such as pork or shrimp, and seasonings like garlic, ginger, and green onions in thin wheat-based wonton wrappers. The parcels are then deep-fried until golden brown, creating a crunchy exterior that complements the flavorful filling. While fried wontons are high in protein due to their meat filling, they are also calorie-dense and often contain significant amounts of fat and sodium, especially when deep-fried. To make them a healthier option, they can be baked or air-fried instead of fried in oil. Typically served with dipping sauces like sweet and sour or soy, fried wontons offer a delicious balance of textures and flavors, making them a favorite among those who enjoy Asian-inspired dishes.
