Spicy Chili Oil Wontons Recipe
Servings: 2
Ingredients
Pork and Shrimp Wontons
- 1/4 lb ground pork
- 1/4 lb shrimp peeled, deveined, and chopped
- 2 tbsp green onions sliced
- 2 tsp ginger minced
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp shaoxing wine
- 1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp white pepper
- Fresh wonton wrappers as needed
Spicy Chili Oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tbsp chili oil or to taste
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 tbsp black vinegar
- 2 tbsp green onions sliced
- 1 tbsp cilantro chopped
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the pork, shrimp, ginger, green onions, soy, Shaoxing, sesame oil, salt, and white pepper.
- Take a wonton wrapper and place 2 teaspoons of the meat filling in the middle. Dip your finger into water and lightly wet the edges of the wrapper. Bring one corner of the wrapper to the other corner to form a triangle. Fold in the other two corners, wet, and pinch to seal. Alternatively, just wet the edges of the wrapper and bring together and pinch into a small pouch. Keep the wrappers and finished wonton covered with saran wrap as you work, to keep them from drying out.
- Bring a large pot of water to boil over medium high heat. While the water is coming to a boil, mix together the spicy chili oil ingredients.
- When the water is at a rapid boil, add in your wonton. Stir gently so they don’t stick to the bottom of the pot. Cook for 4-6 minutes or until cooked through – cut one open to check.
- Drain well and toss in the spicy chili oil. Enjoy with extra cilantro, green onions, and toasted sesame seeds if desired.
