How to Make FRIED WONTONS (SALLYE)

Step-by-Step

Mix all ingredients except won ton skins and half of the beaten eggs together. Reserve 1/2 of eggs for "glue"

Note: If you use ground turkey, add 1/4 teaspoon of Accent to enhance flavor.
Place won ton skin squares on clean working surface with points facing up-down-right-left.
Place 1 tsp filling in the center of each skin.

Dip a little of the beaten egg on the bottom
corner, then bring top corner to meet bottom corner.

Dip a little beaten egg on the left corner and bring the right corner to meet it. Press down to seal.
Heat 4 cups peanut or canola oil in wok or deep heavy saucepan.

Fry wrapped wontons until golden brown (about 2 minutes) Turn over once while cooking

Drain and serve with made ahead dipping sauce.
