Hawaiian Spam Wontons Recipes

HAWAIIAN FRIED WON TONS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the lunchmeat, water chestnuts, green onions, parsley, hard-cooked eggs, pepper, and oyster sauce. Set aside.
• On a clean flat surface, such as a cutting board, lay out 4 to 6 wonton skins at a time. Place a tablespoon of the meat mixture into the center of each one. Keep a small bowl of water next to the work area to dip fingers in. Use wet fingers to moisten the corners of each wrapper. Quickly pinch all 4 corners together to seal in the filling. If it doesn't hold, use more water. Keep filled wontons covered with plastic wrap to prevent drying while the others are made.
• Heat one inch of oil in a deep heavy skillet over medium-high heat, or heat recommended amount of oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Fry wontons for a few minutes on each side, or until golden. Remove to paper towels to absorb excess grease. Enjoy the grinds!

HAWAIIAN SPAM WONTONS

Steps:

• 1. Cube the spam into very small cubes.
• 2. Slice the green onions into thin slices.
• 3. Add a tiny bit of oil to a pan and toss in the spam and saute a few minutes. Toss in the green onions and saute a few minutes.
• 4. Add in the soy sauce. I use low sodium soy sauce. To taste. You do not want it too juicy but you want it flavorful.
• 5. Add the Accent. This is optional. A lot of folks do not use MSG and I rarely use it.
• 6. Saute together until the green onions have wilted. Set aside. (you will have to resist taking bites of this).
• 7. Take a wonton wrapper and place a spoonful of the spam mixture in the middle. Fold over once and seal the edges with your finger dipped in water.
• 8. Place wontons in a pan covered with a damp paper towel to keep them moist.
• 9. Deep fry until golden brown. Serve with Tiger Sauce or any sweet thai chili sauce.
