Cream Cheese Wontons
|
||||
Oh boy! These are great. Cream Cheese Wontons have a crispy outside and a soft creamy inside exploding with flavor. Duck Sauce, Sweet and Sour and Hot Chinese Mustard are a few of the dipping sauces we put out with the wontons.
During a get together we were having last year, one of our guests asked if we had some Buffalo Wing Sauce that he could dip these in. "Well of course!" I replied. So I quietly sent our oldest son out to the store to get some. Now there are four sauces we put out for this recipe.
This recipe calls for just a basic cream cheese filling. You can experiment with adding different ingredients to the cream cheese like some chopped chives, crumbled bacon or different types of herbs. This Asian appetizer is limited only by your imagination.
Cream Cheese Wonton Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 – 8 oz. package of softened cream cheese
- 16 – Wonton Wrappers
- Oil for Frying
- Your favorite dipping sauces
Preparation:
- Heat oil in a deep-fat fryer or pour into a deep skillet on high temperature. Peanut oil works best.
- While oil is heating, lay out the Wonton wrappers you will be using
- Keep a small bowl of water available to wet your fingers with.
- Put a small amount of cream cheese in one corner of each wrapper, about 1/2” from the edges. Use about 1 tsp.
- Wet the two edges nearest the cream cheese with your fingers, then fold the other half down and seal the edges, making a triangle shape.
- Seal the edges tightly, leaving small gaps at the corners so the triangles will not expand and burst.
- Drop several wontons into oil at a time. Flip them over when the edges start to brown and cook for another minute or two.
- Set on paper towels to drain, then serve hot with dipping sauce.
