Print Recipe

These Spicy Wontons in Chilli Sauce feature crispy dumplings filled with seasoned pork and vegetables, perfectly paired with a bold, tangy, and spicy homemade chilli sauce for an irresistible appetizer or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 20 wonton wrappers
  • 200g ground pork
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • For the chilli sauce:
  • 3 tablespoons chili garlic sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine ground pork, green onions, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and white pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of each wonton wrapper.
  3. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold to form a triangle, and press edges firmly to seal. Optionally, bring the two pointed corners together and pinch.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Fry the wontons in batches until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together chili garlic sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar to make the chilli sauce.
  7. Serve the crispy wontons hot, drizzled with or dipped into the spicy chilli sauce, garnished with toasted sesame seeds and fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

For a healthier option, steam the wontons instead of frying and serve with the chilli sauce as a dipping condiment.
