Memphis Wontons

Memphis Wontons

A mashup of Southern BBQ with an Asian twist. This was inspired by my time living in Memphis, where you can get the world’s best meats cooked low and slow.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cooked pulled pork, chopped
  • ½ white onion, minced
  • 1 (12 ounce) package wonton wrappers
  • 2 quarts canola oil
  • 1 cup barbeque sauce

Directions

Step 1
Mix pulled pork and onion together in a bowl.

Step 2
Spoon pork mixture, about 1 teaspoon per wonton, onto the center of each wonton wrapper. Moisten 2 of the 4 sides of each wrapper with water and fold wrapper over filling, forming a triangle. Press to seal.

Step 3
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) or until almost smoking.

Step 4
Working in batches, fry wontons in the hot oil until golden brown, about 1 minute. Transfer cooked wontons to crumpled paper towels. Serve immediately with barbeque sauce.

Cook’s Note:

If you prepare wontons in advance, cover and refrigerate the filled wrappers until ready to fry.
