Ideas For Fried Wonton Appetizers

Serve fried won tons with a sweet and sour dipping sauce.


Fried won tons are Asian cuisine staples and the ideal party finger food. To make the won tons, fill the wrappers with ingredients of your choice, such as meat or cream cheese. Fry the won tons until they are crispy and present them on an appetizer tray. If you're hosting a large party, include several types of won tons to please everyone on your guest list.


Cream Cheese Won Tons


Your party guests won't be able to resist cream cheese won tons, which feature a smooth, creamy filling and a crunchy shell. To make the filling, combine cream cheese, finely chopped green onions and real or imitation crab pieces if you desire. Mix the ingredients until they are smooth and creamy, and scoop the filling into the centers of the won ton wrappers. Fry the won tons until they are golden brown and serve them with a tangy sweet and sour sauce.


Chicken Won Tons








Delight meat eaters with hearty and delicious chicken won tons. Create the filling by combining finely chopped or shredded cooked chicken breast, shredded carrots, minced fresh ginger and soy sauce in a mixing bowl. Spoon the chicken mixture into the centers of the won ton wrappers, seal them up and fry until crunchy. You can serve chicken won tons with a variety of Asian-inspired sauces, such as plum or duck sauce.


Cheese and Sausage Won Tons


For a creative twist on traditional Asian fare, surprise your party guests with cheese and sausage won ton appetizers. Fill the won ton wrappers with a mixture of cooked ground sausage and shredded Monterey jack and cheddar cheeses. Seal the wrappers and fry the won tons until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted. Serve the rich appetizers with flavorful ranch dressing.


Chocolate Won Tons


Give your holiday party guests a dessert-inspired appetizer treat with chocolate-filled won tons. Fill them with a combination of sweet, instead of savory, fillings for a fresh take on won tons. Spoon mini chocolate chips, diced dried fruit and finely chopped nuts, such as pecans or almonds, into the won ton wrappers. Seal the wrappers and fry the goodies until the chocolate is melted.
