Description
Tender beef in crispy wonton wrappers with a quick ginger sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 lb ground beef, grass fed is best (we buy ours from Five Marys)
- 2 tablespoons yellow onion, chopped finely
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 pinch of sea salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, chopped
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 package of wonton wrappers
- 1 egg
- 4 tablespoons coconut oil, divided
Ginger Soy Sauce
- 1/3 cup liquid aminos (or soy sauce)
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated or minced
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Mix everything in a small serving dish or bowl. Serve with warm pot stickers.
Instructions
- In a medium sized saucepan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 4 minutes or until about 1/2 way cooked. Add in the onions and garlic. Stir occasionally to combine and turn over the mixture. When all the meat is cooked through (no longer pink), turn off the heat. Add in the salt, ginger and coconut aminos. Let sit to cool.
- Mix the egg up in a small bowl. Lay out 1 wonton wrapper at a time. Using a teaspoon, spoon some of the meat mixture onto the center of the wrapper. Dip a brush or your finger into the egg mixture. Trace the edges of the wonton wrapper with the egg mixture – in a square shape.
- Bring the two opposite corners together. Press the edges together until they seal. Set on a baking sheet. Repeat this process until all the ground beef mixture is used.
- Heat a non stick sauce pan up over medium heat. Add 1-2 tablespoons of oil to the pan. Heat up until the pan sizzles when a drop of water is added. Add 4-6 wontons at a time to the pan – don’t want to crowd them.
- Cook on the first side for 2 minutes or until it is mostly brown and crispy. Flip over to cook the other side. Remove from pan when it is mostly brown and crispy. Place on a serving plate or another baking sheet.
- If not serving them right away – they can we reheated in the oven at 300F for 5 minutes. Serve warm with the ginger soy sauce.
