Ingredients
1/2lbground pork
1/4cupshredded mozzarella
1/4cupdiced roasted hatch green chile
2tbspchopped onion
2green onionthinly sliced
pinch of salt
wonton wrappersas needed
oilto deep fry
Instructions
In a bowl, mix together the ground pork, shredded cheese, hatch chiles, onions, and a pinch of salt.
Take a wonton wrapper and lay it down flat. Place 1 tablespoon of filling near one corner and fold up.
Fold in the corners on the right and left of the filling.
Dab a bit of water on the remaining corner and roll the filling up, much like making a very tiny burrito. Place on a plate and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Repeat with the remaining filling.
Heat up 1-2 inches of oil in a deep, heavy bottomed pan over medium high heat until it reaches 350°F. Deep fry the wonton in batches, flipping as needed, until golden brown and cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Drain on a wire rack or paper towels.
Notes
Note: I served these with a quick hatch green chili mayo. In a small bowl, mix togehter 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoons chopped hatch green chiles, and 1 teaspoon soy.
