Fried Wanton

Ingredient:-
  • 300 g pork ( blend it )
  • 8 big peeled shrimps ( finely chopped )
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 green onion ( finely chopped )
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1/2 tsp ginger ( finely chopped )
  • 1 small size carrot ( boiled and finely chopped )
  • 2 Chinese Mushroom ( Soaked and finely chopped )
  • 30 - 35 wanton skin
  • Dash of white pepper ( optional )
1 egg yolk ( lightly beaten for wrapping the wanton use )


Methods:-
  1. Mix all ingredients except egg york and wanton skin.
  2. Marinate for 1 hour or longer.
  3. To make the wanton, put 1 tsp of the filling in the middle of the wanton skin.
  4. Pick one corner and fold it into the diagonal corner and seal it with egg york.
  5. Pick up the 2 ends that have 45 degree angle ( the ones where the fold is ) and wet them with a dab of egg yolk. Then pinch these 2 corner together.
  6. Use as much wanton filling as needed. ( I kept 1/2 of the filling in refrigerator for next round use as I couldn't finished all )
  7. Heat up the frying pan with cooking oil.
  8. Slowly and gently put the wanton into the pan and fry them until golden brown.
  9. Keep turning the wanton all the way through.
  10. Monitor the heat to ensure it's not too hot, this will prevent the situation where the wanton skin is darken but uncooked inside.
Ready to serve! Deep fried wanton :)


You can serve with tomato ketchup, mayonnaise sauce or even chili sauce.
