Ingredients
- 200g ground pork
- 100g shrimp, finely chopped
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice wine
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
- 30 wonton wrappers
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying)
- 2 tablespoons chili oil
- 1 tablespoon Szechuan peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon black vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Chopped cilantro (for garnish)
- Chili flakes (optional, for extra spice)
Instructions
- 1In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped shrimp, green onions, minced ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil, salt, and white pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- 2Take a wonton wrapper and place a teaspoon of filling in the center. Moisten the edges with water, fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, and press the edges to seal. You can also twist the edges to form a more traditional shape if desired. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- 3In a pot of boiling water, cook the wontons in batches for about 5-7 minutes or until they float to the top and are cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- 4Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the boiled wontons and fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels again.
- 5To make the Szechuan sauce: In a small saucepan, heat the chili oil over medium heat, add the Szechuan peppercorns, and stir for about a minute until fragrant. Add sugar, black vinegar, and soy sauce, bring to a gentle simmer, then remove from heat.
- 6To serve, place the wontons on a platter, drizzle them with the Szechuan sauce, and garnish with chopped cilantro. Sprinkle with chili flakes if desired for extra heat.
