Filling Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, finely chopped green onions, garlic powder, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth.
Wonton Assembly
- 2
Assemble the Wontons
Take one wonton wrapper and place it on a clean, dry surface. Add about one teaspoon of the cream cheese filling in the center of the wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water using your finger. Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to create a triangle and press the edges to seal. Ensure there are no air pockets. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Frying
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small piece of wonton wrapper in; it should sizzle immediately.

Fry the Wontons
Carefully add a few wontons to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the wontons for about 2-3 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy, turning them occasionally for even cooking. Remove them with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Serve the cream cheese wontons hot with your choice of dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce or soy sauce. Enjoy!
