Ingredients
- 1 package wonton wrappers
- Vegetable or peanut oil (for frying)
Instructions
- Prepare frying station: Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot ½ to ⅔ full with vegetable or peanut oil. Line a baking sheet with layers of paper towels to absorb excess oil from the fried chips.
- Heat the oil: Heat the oil to 360°F, using an oil or candy thermometer to monitor the temperature. Adjust the stove flame to keep the oil temperature steady between 350°F and 360°F during frying.
- Cut wonton wrappers: Slice the wonton wrappers into triangles. Keep the unused wrappers covered with a clean kitchen towel to prevent drying out between batches.
- Fry the wonton chips: Add 6-7 wonton triangles (or more depending on your pot size) into the hot oil at a time. Fry for 60-90 seconds until they puff up and turn a deep golden brown. Use a spider or slotted spoon to separate chips as they fry to avoid sticking, and ensure not to overcrowd the pot to maintain the oil temperature and prevent greasy chips.
- Drain and cool: Remove the fried chips with a slotted spoon onto the paper towel-lined baking sheet. Let them cool completely before serving or storing.
Notes
- Maintain oil temperature closely to ensure crispy, non-greasy chips.
- Use peanut oil for a neutral flavor or vegetable oil as a budget-friendly option.
- Store cooled chips in an airtight container to keep them crisp.
- These chips are excellent for dips like guacamole, salsa, or creamy dressings.
- Be cautious with hot oil to avoid burns.
