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
Directions
Step 1
Chop the vegan shrimp into small pieces and place them into a mixing bowl.
Step 2
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.
Step 3
Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined to form a consistent filling.
Step 4
Lay out the wonton wrappers on a clean surface and place about one teaspoon of the filling in the center of each wrapper.
Step 5
Lightly moisten the edges of each wrapper with water using your finger or a pastry brush.
Step 6
Fold each wonton into a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal, making sure there are no air pockets.
Step 7
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat until it reaches around 350°F (175°C).
Step 8
Fry the wontons in batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan, for about 3-4 minutes or until they are golden and crispy.
Step 9
Once fried, remove the wontons from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Step 10
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
