Ingredients
  

1 pound ground pork

1 cup finely chopped green onions

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon chili paste (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon sugar

1 package wonton wrappers (about 40 pieces)

1 egg, beaten (for sealing)

Vegetable oil (for frying)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped green onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger.

    Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, chili paste, and sugar to the meat mixture. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

      Lay out a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Place a heaping teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of the wrapper.

        Dip your finger into the beaten egg and lightly brush it around the edges of the wonton wrapper.

          Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle and press the edges firmly to seal. Make sure there are no air pockets. For a fancier presentation, you can create pleats along the edges.

            Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.

              In a deep skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until hot. Carefully add wontons in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, approximately 3-4 minutes per side.

                Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked wontons to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

                  Serve the spicy pork wontons hot, garnished with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro. Accompany with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, chili oil, and a splash of vinegar if desired.
