Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 20 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Soy sauce
- 1 large Egg (beaten)
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and soy sauce. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Step 2
Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Scoop about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture into the center of the wrapper.
Step 3
Brush the edges of the wonton wrapper with beaten egg to serve as glue.
Step 4
Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal and removing any air pockets. For an optional decorative touch, fold and pinch the corners together.
Step 5
Repeat the process with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
Step 6
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Step 7
Carefully add a few wontons at a time to the hot oil, making sure to leave enough space between them to avoid overcrowding.
Step 8
Fry the wontons for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Use a slotted spoon to remove the wontons and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 10
Serve warm with sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.
