A Budget Wonton Movie Night

If you’ve been residing in Kenya this might be for you. You see, with the ever-increasing cost of living, there came a moment when going out for dinner dates lost a bit of its sparkle. Who has time (Moreso the budget) to drop it all in an expensive bistro.

You might as well hold on to your purse and become a little creative. And for sure, in the heart of all the camaraderie, I stumbled upon a gem of an idea: movie night with friends at my cozy abode.

In the midst of brainstorming the perfect movie night, I decided to venture into the world of budget-friendly yet utterly delicious snacks. And as luck would have it, I stumbled upon a culinary marvel – crispy wonton wrappers. My secret weapon for the evening? Rinsun Vegetable Cooking Oil, of course! So what did it comprise?


Ingredients:

A pack of wonton wrappers (readily available at your local store)
2 cups of finely shredded vegetables (cabbage, carrots, and spring onions)
1 cup of minced chicken, beef, or a protein of your choice (optional)
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1-inch piece of ginger, grated
2 tablespoons of Rinsun Vegetable Cooking Oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Sweet chili sauce or soy sauce for dipping


Instructions:

1. Prepare the Filling:
a. Heat a splash of Rinsun Vegetable Cooking Oil in a pan.
b. Sauté the garlic and ginger until fragrant.
c. Add the protein (if using) and cook until browned.
d. Toss in the shredded vegetables and stir-fry until they begin to soften.
e. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside to cool.

2. Assemble the Wontons:
a. Lay out your wonton wrappers on a clean, dry surface.
b. Place a small spoonful of the vegetable-protein mixture in the center of each wrapper.
c. Dab a little water on the edges of the wrapper, then fold it in half to form a triangle. Press the edges to seal tightly.

3. Heat Up the Oil:
a. In a deep pan, heat Rinsun Vegetable Cooking Oil over medium heat. To check if it’s hot enough, toss in a tiny piece of wonton wrapper – if it sizzles, you’re good to go.

4. Fry to Crispy Perfection:
a. Carefully place a few wontons in the hot oil, ensuring they aren’t crowded.
b. Fry until golden brown, turning occasionally for even cooking.
c. Using a slotted spoon, remove the crispy delights and let them drain on paper towels.

5. Serve with Style:
a. Arrange your golden wonton triangles on a platter.
b. Whip up a dipping sauce with sweet chili sauce or soy sauce for a tangy kick.
