Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/4 lb scallops, chopped
  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 20 wonton wrappers
  • 2 quarts oil, for frying
  • 1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha hot sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons corn starch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instruction

  • Heat oil in a large pot to 325°F. Dry off fresh scallops with a few paper towels and cut them into 1/2 inch cubes. You need 20 cubes of scallops.
  • Working with one wonton wrapper at a time, add about a teaspoon of cream cheese in the center and top it with a scallop cube.
  • Wet around the edges of the wonton skin with water and fold it into a triangle.
  • Then take the two opposite ends and bring them into the center to form a pouch. Press the edges to seal them tightly. Repeat with all the wonton wrappers.
  • Once all the dumplings are made, fry them at 325°F -350°F for 3-4 minutes until the dumplings are a light brown color and very crispy.
  • Remove dumplings with a slotted spoon and let drain for a minute on a paper towel. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
  • To make sweet sour sauce, combine ingredients in a small saucepan and stir over medium heat.
  • Allow sauce to come to a slight simmer and simmer for 4-5 minutes until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and serve with dumplings.
