Seal the Wontons
Moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper over to create a triangle and press the edges firmly to seal. Ensure there are no air pockets.

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

Drain and Serve
Remove the wontons from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
