Wonton Crisps

Method

Wonton Crisps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 2

    Fry the Wontons

    Carefully place the wonton wrappers one at a time into the hot oil. Fry them until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side.

  3. 3

    Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the crispy wontons from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle immediately with salt.

Tuna Filling

  1. 4

    Prepare the Filling

    In a medium bowl, combine the drained canned tuna, mayonnaise, soy sauce, chopped green onions, sesame oil, and Sriracha. Mix until well combined.

  2. 5

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the tuna mixture and adjust with more Sriracha if you prefer it spicier, or add more mayonnaise for creaminess.

  3. 6

    Assemble the Spoons

    Spoon a generous amount of the tuna filling onto each crispy wonton. Sprinkle with black sesame seeds for garnish.
