Ingredients
- 24 wonton wrappers
- 8 oz cream cheese
- Oil for frying
- Water for sealing
Easy Sweet & Sour Sauce
- ¼ cup raspberry jam
- 2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce
- 2 teaspoons sriracha
Instructions
- Lay several wonton wrappers on your work surface. Place 1 teaspoon of cream cheese into the middle of each.
- Using a pastry brush, or your finger, brush water along the border. Fold the wrapper over the cream cheese to form a triangle. Seal by pinching the edges together. Repeat the process until you have about 24 rangoons.
- In a large cast iron skillet or large saucepan, warm the oil to 350℉. Fry the wontons for 1 minute on each side. Remove using a slotted spoon and set on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate.
- To make the sweet and sour sauce, place all of the ingredients into a small bowl and stir to combine.
- Serve immediately.
Tips & Notes
- Add 2 teaspoons of red or green curry paste to the cream cheese for a twist on the traditional recipe.
