🥟 Air-Fried Crispy Ginger-Pork Wontons 🇨🇳

In a medium bowl, combine the ground pork, grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped green onion, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix vigorously with a fork until the ingredients form a cohesive, intensely fragrant paste.

Lay a wonton wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place exactly 1 teaspoon of the pork filling directly into the center. Dip your finger in water and moisten all four edges. Fold the wrapper diagonally over the filling to form a triangle, pressing firmly from the center outward to force out all trapped air pockets. Ensure the seal is flawless so no moisture escapes.

Preheat your air fryer to 190°C (375°F). Arrange the wontons in the basket in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap. Spray both sides of the wontons generously with cooking oil spray until the white flour on the wrappers looks completely damp. Air fry for 7–8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the skins are beautifully blistered and golden-brown.

Transfer the crackling hot wontons to a platter. Serve immediately while the shells are exceptionally loud and crisp alongside your cold chili-soy dipping sauce. The sudden crunch yielding to a hot, gingery, juicy center is sensational!
