Ginger & Pork Wontons Recipe.

Ingredients:

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

Recipe Instructions:

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.

Place about 1 TBSP 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.

For shallow fry: In a deep cast-iron or electric skillet, heat 1 inch of oil to 375 degrees.
Fry wontons in batches until golden brown, 2-3 minutes, turning once.
Drain on paper towels.
If desired, serve with plum sauce.
