Servings 10 wontons

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cabbage or cole slaw mix shredded
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 10-15 wonton wrappers
  • 1 teaspoon water or oil for sealing
  • 2-3 cups vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Preheat a deep fryer or heat a few inches of vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer until shimmering.
  • In a small skillet, pour the cabbage in with a tablespoon of oil and sauté until wilted. Add the soy sauce and stir until the moisture is mostly evaporated. Remove from the pan and let it cool for 20 minutes.
  • Use a 1/2 tablespoon to measure out the filling for each wonton wrapper. Place a mound of filling in the center of each wrapper, then seal the edges together with a touch of water. Pinch the edges closed.
  • Deep fry the wontons for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
  • Serve the cabbage wontons right away alongside some stir fry and enjoy!
