Pork and Beef Broccoli Wontons image

Make certain to cut the florets very small for this, no need to pre-cook the beef/pork mixture, it will cook in the oil. This recipe should make about 40-45 wontons using 1 heaping teaspoon of meat mixture, the recipe can easily be doubled. You can use all ground pork (1/2-pound) if desired. Plan ahead the meat mixture must be chilled for a minumum of 4 hours or overnight before using. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce --- I have made these many times in the past they are really good and makes a great finger food for a get together! :)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups fresh broccoli florets (can use frozen)

3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons salt (or to taste)
1 (12 ounce) package wonton wrappers

Steps:

  • Steam the broccoli florets until just tender; drain and then chop very small.
  • In a medium bowl combine ground beef and pork with chopped broccoli and all remaining ingredients; mix well to combine; chill for a minumum of 4 hors (or overnight).

  • Place 1 heaping teaspoon of the meat mixture into the center of each wrapper.
  • Fold the warppers diagonally in half, pressing edges to seal.
