Ginger Pork Wontons


Ginger-Pork Wontons

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce or 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon dry sherry
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 celery rib, finely chopped
  • 1 medium carrot, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh gingerroot
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 40 wonton wrappers
  • Oil for frying
  • Plum sauce, optional

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, mix the first 5 ingredients. In a large skillet, cook pork over medium heat until no longer pink, 6-8 minutes; drain. Add vegetables, ginger and garlic; cook 2-3 minutes longer. Stir in sauce mixture; cook and stir until mixture is slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Cool slightly.
  2. Place about 1 tablespoon filling in center of each wonton wrapper. Moisten wrapper edges with water. Fold 1 corner diagonally over filling to form a triangle; press edges to seal.
  3. For shallow fry: In a deep cast-iron or electric skillet, heat 1 in. of oil to 375°. Fry wontons in batches until golden brown, 2-3 minutes, turning once. Drain on paper towels. If desired, serve with plum sauce.
