Hot & Spicy Wontons
8 ounces ground beef
6 ounces ground pork
1 onion, finely chopped
red pepper flakes, to taste
8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
1 package of wonton wrappers
Saute meats and onion in small amount of vegetable oil. Add red pepper flakes and grind the mixture coarsely in a food processor. Add shredded cheese and when cook, fill the wonton wrappers.
Heat oil and deep fry wontons in small batches until golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels and serve with plum sauce for dipping.
To Fill:
Place a scant teaspoon of filling in center of each wrapper. Fold up one corner and roll and fold in the outside corners to incase the filling. Continue rolling until you have a compact mini-cigar shape. Brush the edges of the wrappers with water to seal, making sure there are no openings for oil to get in.
**NOTE: You can also omit the cheese and red pepper flakes in the filling, and serve fried wontons with a honey garlic sauce.
