(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Asian

Ingredients

  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tbsp minced cilantro
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped white mushrooms
  • Pinch white pepper
  • 1/2 lb ground pork
  • 25 won ton skins
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Directions

  1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the garlic, cilantro, soy sauce, mushrooms, white pepper and ground pork.

  2. To make the won tons, place approximately 1/2 tsp of filling in the middle of a won ton skin. Fold the won ton from corner to corner, forming a triangle. Press the edges together to seal closed. Repeat with remaining skins and filling.

  3. Add about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil to a deep fryer or wok. Heat the oil on medium until it reaches about 350 degrees. Carefully add the won tons, 2 or 3 at a time. Fry until they are golden brown, turning them constantly. Transfer the cooked won tons to drain on paper towels as they are done.

  4. Serve the won tons with either sweet-and-sour sauce or sauce of your choice.
