Method (preview)

1. 1

   Put pork in bowl and chop with a knife to allow for even mixture with other ingredients.

2. 2

   Squeeze chopped water chestnuts in a paper towel to remove moisture and then add to pork.

3. 3

   Add remaining ingredients except for wanton skins and cooking oil and stir well until completely mixed.

4. 4

   Place about 1 tsp. of the mix in the center of a wanton skin and fold the skin over to make a triangle.

5. 5

   The water helps hold the wanton skin together.

6. 6

   Heat oil to 350 degrees in a wok or a deep fat fryer.

7. 7

   Cook wantons only about 3 or 4 at a time to make sure you do not lower the cooking temperature of the oil too much.

8. 8

   Maintaining the heat of the cooking oil will keep the wantons from absorbing too much oil.

9. 9

   Remove wantons with a slotted spoon or frying strainer when they are golden brown.

10. 10

    Drain on paper towels.
