1
Make the filling
In a medium bowl, beat or mash the softened cream cheese with the finely chopped green onions, soy sauce, garlic powder, granulated sugar, and salt until smooth and well combined.
2
Prepare wrappers
Arrange wonton wrappers on a clean surface and cover with a damp towel to prevent drying.
3
Fill wrappers
Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each wrapper.
4
Seal edges
Lightly moisten the outer edges of the wrapper with water. Fold to enclose the filling and press the edges to seal; remove any air pockets.
5
Assemble in batches
Continue filling and sealing the remaining wrappers, placing finished wontons on a tray in a single layer.
6
Fry
In a deep skillet or pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the wontons in batches until golden brown and crisp, about 2–3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.
7
Alternative cooking
For a lighter option, bake at 425°F (220°C) for 8–10 minutes or air-fry at 400°F (200°C) for 6–8 minutes.
8
Serve
Serve hot with a dipping sauce of your choice.
