Ingredients

Edamame Wonton Recipe:

16 Wonton Wrappers
Oil For Frying (not olive oil!)

Wonton Filling

1 Ripe Avocado
4 oz. Cream Cheese
2 tablespoon honey
1 tsp. Sesame Oil
¼ Tsp. Salt

Instructions

Add all filling ingredients in a mixer and mix until creamy.

Fill a saucepan or wok with a few inches of oil and heat to 350 degrees F.
Lay all wonton wrappers out on a table and scoop about 2 tsp. of the filling into the middle of each.
Then use your finger to wet the edges of the wonton wrapper. Fold opposite corners together like in photo. Repeat with last two corners. You should have a star shape.
Repeat with the rest of the wontons making sure the water does not dry before sealing your wontons. I recommend sealing 2-3 at a time.
When oil is ready, add only a few wontons at a time. Too many will bring the oil temperature down resulting in a greasy wonton! Fry for about 30 seconds or until golden brown flipping halfway through.
Drain on paper towels and serve hot!

Notes

Tips*

Make these a few hours ahead and warm them up in an oven at 350 F for 5-10 minutes before guests arrive!
Serve with soy or eel sauce!
You can omit the honey if you do not want these sweet.
Make sure you seal your wonton wrappers properly or the filling will spill out in the fryer.
