Ingredients:

  • cast iron skillet

  • canola oil

  • cream cheese (sub vegan cream cheese)

  • wonton wrappers (find these by the vegan/vegetarian section at Kroger)

  • 1 egg (sub water if vegan)

Whatcha do:

  1. Begin by pouring about 1/4 in of oil into your cast iron skillet, its going to take a second to heat up so go ahead and get that going on medium-high heat.

  2. On a clean work space (probably use a cutting board) lay out a couple of your wonton wrappers. Plop a little glob of cream cheese in the center of each (about 1/2 tablespoon). With your clean fingers or with a cooking brush, line two of the edges with egg or water. Fold in half (so that its a triangle) then meet the two corners together with a little more egg or water.

  3. Tip** use the bottom of a wooden spoon to see if your oil is hot enough. If you stick in the oil and bubbles appear around it, you’re ready to go.

  4. Gently (pls don’t burn yourself) place a couple wontons into the oil, fry until each sides is a pretty golden brown. About 30 seconds each side.

  5. When you remove them from heat, place them on a paper towel lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

  6. Repeat until either you’re full or you run out of an ingredient.
