Tips:

Make sure to use wonton wrappers that are specifically designed for frying. These wrappers are thinner and crispier than regular wonton wrappers, and they will hold their shape better when fried.
If you don't have a wonton wrapper press, you can use a fork to crimp the edges of the wontons.
Be careful not to overfill the wontons, or they will burst open when you fry them.
If you are using fresh vegetables in your filling, make sure to drain them thoroughly before adding them to the wontons. This will prevent the wontons from becoming soggy.
Serve the wontons with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular choices include soy sauce, sweet and sour sauce, and chili sauce.
