Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound ground pork
1 cup diced celery
1 cup shredded carrot
1 cup diced onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
¼ cup soy sauce
1 (14 ounce) package wonton wrappers
2 eggs, beaten
1 quart canola oil for frying

Steps:

  • Mix together the ground pork, celery, carrot, onion, and garlic in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and soy sauce; mix with your hands until well blended.
