Wontons

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix the cream cheese with the finely chopped roasted jalapeños until well combined.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Wontons

    Place a teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges with water and fold the wrapper over to form a triangle. Press the edges to seal.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Wontons

    Carefully drop the wontons into the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
