Crispy Beef & Bell Pepper Wontons ingredients
- 0.75 lb ground beef
- 0.5 cup red bell pepper
- 0.25 cup yellow onion
- 1 tsp fresh ginger
- 1 clove garlic
- 1.5 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 0.25 tsp white pepper
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 32 count wonton wrappers
- 0.25 cup water
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
How to make Crispy Beef & Bell Pepper Wontons
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the 0.75 lb lean ground beef, 1/2 cup finely diced red bell pepper, 1/4 cup finely diced yellow onion, 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger, and 1 clove minced garlic.
- Add 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, 1/4 teaspoon white pepper, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch to the beef mixture. Mix thoroughly with your hands until the filling is well combined and slightly sticky.
- Lay a wonton wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place about 1 teaspoon of the beef filling in the center of the wrapper.
- Dip your finger in a small bowl of 1/4 cup water and moisten all four edges of the wonton wrapper. Fold the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle, pressing firmly to seal the edges and remove any air bubbles.
- For extra security and a traditional shape, bring the two bottom corners of the triangle together, slightly overlapping them, and press firmly with a dab of water to seal. Repeat with the remaining 31 wrappers and filling.
- Heat 1/2 cup of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot enough to sizzle when a tiny bit of filling is dropped in.
- Carefully place 6-8 wontons in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Pan-fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Using tongs, remove the crispy wontons from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Repeat the frying process with the remaining wontons, adjusting heat as needed to maintain consistent browning. Serve warm with your favorite Chinese dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour or chili garlic sauce.
