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
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
