To begin with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can have fried pork and prawn wonton using 11 ingredients and 16 steps. Here is how you cook that.

Cover the wonton wrappers with a damp towel so they don't dry out as you fill and assemble them. Put on one side of a damp towel. (Cover the wontons with the other side of the towel until ready) or start deep frying. It is pork after all.) In some provinces in China, people like to serve wontons in a broth and with some garnish that can include eggs fried crepe thin then thickly sliced, zicai, (紫菜) and green vegetables. The ingredients for this basic pork and shrimp wonton are easy to get hold of but here's a couple cooking tips before you start making your filling.
Instructions to make Fried Pork and Prawn Wonton:
- Start by making the filling. Simply combine the ground pork, chopped scallions, sesame oil, soy sauce, wine, sugar, oil, water, and white pepper in a bowl.
- Whip everything together by hand for 5 minutes or in a food processor for 1 minute. You want the pork and prawn to look a bit like a paste.
- To make the wontons, take a wrapper, and add about a teaspoon of filling. Overstuffed wontons will pop open during the cooking process and make a mess. Use your finger to coat the edges with a little water (this helps the two sides seal together).
- For shape #1:
- Fold the wrapper in half into a rectangle, and press the two sides together so you get a firm seal.
- Hold the bottom two corners of the little rectangle you just made, and bring the two corners together, pressing firmly to seal. (Use a little water to make sure it sticks.)
- For Shape #2:
- Fold the wonton in half so you have a triangle shape. Bring together the two outer corners, and press to seal (you can use a little water to make sure it sticks).
- Keep assembling until all the filling is gone (this recipe should make between 40 and 50 wontons). Place the wontons on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- At this point, you can cover the wontons with plastic wrap, put the baking sheet/plate into the freezer, and transfer them to Ziploc bags once they’re frozen.
- They’ll keep for a couple months in the freezer and be ready for the fryer whenever you’re ready.
- To conserve oil, use a small pot to fry the wontons. Fill it with 2 to 3 inches of oil, making sure the pot is deep enough so the oil does not overflow when adding the wontons.
- Heat the oil to 350 degrees, and fry in small batches, turning the wontons occasionally until they are golden brown.
- If you have a small spider strainer or slotted spoon, you can use it to keep the wontons submerged when frying. This method will give you the most uniform golden brown look without the fuss of turning them.
- Remove the fried wontons to a sheet pan lined with paper towels or a metal cooling rack to drain.
- Serve it with siracha and kwepee mayonaise.
Combine the shrimp with all the Seasoning ingredients together. Assemble the shrimp wontons by placing a piece of the wonton wrapper on a flat surface. In a bowl, mix the ground pork, shrimp, soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper together. Stir to combine well to form a sticky filling. Season with salt and pepper and mix briefly with chopsticks, wet hands or wooden spoons.
