Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 3 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 30 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 1 Egg, beaten
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Step 2
Place a single wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Add about 1 teaspoon of the ground beef mixture to the center of the wrapper.
Step 3
Dip your finger in the beaten egg and lightly moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper.
Step 4
Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing out any air pockets, and seal the edges firmly.
Step 5
If desired, fold the two opposite corners of the triangle towards each other and press them together to create a traditional wonton shape.
Step 6
Repeat the process with the remaining wonton wrappers and beef filling until all are assembled.
Step 7
In a deep pan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat to 350°F (175°C).
Step 8
Carefully fry the wontons in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan, until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Step 9
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried wontons to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 10
Serve the wontons hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
