Shrimp Yummies
- 12 ounces, weight Package Nasoya Wonton Wraps
- 12 ounces, weight Chive And Onion Flavored Cream Cheese
- 1 pound Package Frozen Shrimp--Medium Sized, Peeled & Deveined, Thawed & Patted VERY Dry.
- 48 ounces, fluid Canola Oil, For Frying (less Or More Depending On Pan Used)
- Make sure the shrimp is completely thawed and patted very dry or youll end up with gummy wrappers.
- Heat oil in pan.
- Make sure to use a pan that is deep enough so that the wontons dont rest on the bottom when frying.
- Remove wonton wraps from packaging placing them so that they look like diamonds in front of you.
- Get small bowl of water to use for sealing edges of wrappers.
- Take 1/2-1 teaspoon of cream cheese and place in middle of wrapper and top with a piece of shrimp.
- Dip your finger in the water and run along edges of the wonton wrapper, then fold the wrapper over the shrimp/cream cheese, matching point to point.
- Helpful hint: Place filled wontons on wax paper to dry out for a couple of minutes.
- Then turn them over and let them dry on the other side for a couple more before frying.
- When oil is hot enough, place a few wontons in pan without overcrowding.
- Make sure not to overcrowd otherwise you will have them sticking together.
- Watch closely...
- Remember your shrimp has to cook, so if the skins get dark way too fast, turn the heat down some.
- Medium-high works the best.
- They only take about 1 1/2-2 minutes per side.
- Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
- I like to serve these with a nice sweet & sour sauce.
- Yummy!
