Ingredients
- 1/2 lb (250g) ground chicken
- 1/4 lb (113g) shrimp, chopped into small pieces
- 1 stalk scallion cut into rings
- 1/2 teaspoon corn starch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 dash fish sauce optional
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 3 dashes ground white pepper
- 12 pieces wonton wrappers
- water for sealing
- oil for deep frying
Dipping Sauce:
- 3 tablespoons Thai sweet chili sauce
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro leaves
- 1 pinch white sesame seeds
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the ground chicken, shrimp, scallion and cornstarch until well combined. Add the salt, fish sauce, sesame oil and white pepper. Stir to mix well. Set aside.
- Wrap the wontons with the wonton wrappers by placing a piece of the wonton wrapper on your palm. Add 1/2 tablespoon of the filling in the middle of the wrapper. Dip your index finger into some water and trace it on the outer edges of the wonton wrapper.
- Fold and pinch the edges of the wonton wrapper up and seal the wonton tight, so there is no opening at the top and the wonton is securely enclosed. Watch the video below to learn how to wrap wontons.
- Heat up some cooking oil in a wok or frying pan and deep fry the wontons until golden brown. Serve hot with sweet chili sauce, or eat plain.
