Ingredients:​

  • 8 eggroll wrappers or 16 wonton wrappers

  • Oil for frying (coconut, olive, vegetable, etc.)

  • 1 container Spring Onion Velvet

  • Toasted sesame seeds for garnish

​

Quick Sweet & Sour Sauce:

  • 1/4 Cup brown sugar

  • 2 teaspoons ketchup

  • 1/8 Cup rice vinegar

  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce or tamari

  • 2 teaspoons corn starch

  • 1/3 cup orange juice

Wonton Instructions:

  1. Fill a small bowl with water. 

  2. Place a small spoonful of Spring Onion Velvet in the center of each wrapper. 

  3. Dip your fingertips in the water and wet the edge on all sides of a wrapper.

  4. Fold the wrapper in half over the cheese so that you have a triangle, and gently pinch to press the seam together on both sides.  Continue until all the wrappers are sealed.​

  5. Pour your oil of choice into a skillet until it is about 1/4" deep.  Heat over medium-high until the oil begins to shimmer. 

  6. Add  your wontons a few at a time so that they have plenty of space and fry them until golden brown on the first side (1-2 minutes), then flip and brown the other side. 

  7. Remove to a paper-towel lined plate and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.


Sweet & Sour Sauce Instructions:

Whisk all ingredients together in a small saucepan.  Bring to a simmer over medium high heat, and simmer a few minutes until it begins to thicken.  Remove from the heat.  Serve warm or cold.

Make these a main dish by serving alongside steamed white or brown rice and broccoli.  Garnish with sliced green onions and pass the sauce at the table.
