Ingredients

  • Chopped cooked pulled pork weighing 8 ounces,
  • Finely minced half a white onion,
  • A package of wonton wrappers weighing 12 ounces,
  • Two quarts of canola oil for frying,
  • One cup of delectable barbeque sauce.

Step 1

Combine the juicy pulled pork with diced onions in a mixing bowl, ensuring a harmonious blend of flavors. Next, take a wonton wrapper and add a generous teaspoon of the pork mixture onto the center, letting your creativity guide you in shaping each one into a unique triangle. Gently moisten two sides of the wrapper with water before folding it over the filling, pressing down to ensure a tight seal.

Step 2

Prepare a deep-fryer or a large saucepan by heating oil to the perfect temperature of 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), just before it starts to smoke, creating the ideal cooking environment. Carefully fry the wontons in batches, watching as they transform into a crispy golden brown in about a minute. Once cooked to perfection, transfer the delightful parcels to paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

Step 3

To elevate the dish further, serve the freshly fried wontons alongside a delectable barbeque sauce, allowing the flavors to mingle and delight your taste buds. Enjoy these delectable treats immediately, savoring each bite of this mouthwatering creation.
