Kimchi and Pork-Filled Pillows: A Delicious Korean Appetizer
Looking for a unique and flavorful appetizer to impress your guests? Look no further than Kimchi and Pork-Filled Pillows! This Korean-inspired dish is a perfect blend of spicy and savory flavors, with a crispy exterior and a soft, pillowy interior.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 package of wonton wrappers
- 1 cup of kimchi, finely chopped
- 1/2 pound of ground pork
- 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 egg, beaten
- Vegetable oil, for frying
To make the filling, combine the kimchi, ground pork, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sugar, and black pepper in a bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
To assemble the pillows, place a small spoonful of the filling in the center of each wonton wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with the beaten egg, then fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle. Press the edges together firmly to seal.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the wontons in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve the Kimchi and Pork-Filled Pillows hot, garnished with chopped scallions or cilantro if desired. Your guests will love the crispy texture and bold flavors of this unique appetizer!
