If you love Spam, you will love this. If you think you do not like Spam, I challenge you to try this. Whenever I make this, folks rave over these. Even those that claim they cannot stand Spam. About 30 years ago I met a lady from Hawaii through some friends that were stationed at the same base as them. We used to see them...

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 can(s) low sodium spam
6 stalk(s) green onion
2 Tbsp soy sauce (or more to taste)
1/2 tsp accent, optional
1 pkg wonton wrappers

Steps:

  • 1. Cube the spam into very small cubes.
  • 2. Slice the green onions into thin slices.
  • 3. Add a tiny bit of oil to a pan and toss in the spam and saute a few minutes. Toss in the green onions and saute a few minutes.
  • 4. Add in the soy sauce. I use low sodium soy sauce. To taste. You do not want it too juicy but you want it flavorful.
  • 5. Add the Accent. This is optional. A lot of folks do not use MSG and I rarely use it.
  • 6. Saute together until the green onions have wilted. Set aside. (you will have to resist taking bites of this).
  • 7. Take a wonton wrapper and place a spoonful of the spam mixture in the middle. Fold over once and seal the edges with your finger dipped in water.
  • 8. Place wontons in a pan covered with a damp paper towel to keep them moist.
  • 9. Deep fry until golden brown. Serve with Tiger Sauce or any sweet thai chili sauce.

Time 45m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 ounce) container fully cooked luncheon meat (e.g. Spam), chopped
1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and chopped
3 tablespoons green onions, chopped
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
3 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and chopped
½ teaspoon pepper
1 ½ tablespoons oyster sauce
1 (14 ounce) package square wonton wrappers
1 quart vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the lunchmeat, water chestnuts, green onions, parsley, hard-cooked eggs, pepper, and oyster sauce. Set aside.
  • On a clean flat surface, such as a cutting board, lay out 4 to 6 wonton skins at a time. Place a tablespoon of the meat mixture into the center of each one. Keep a small bowl of water next to the work area to dip fingers in. Use wet fingers to moisten the corners of each wrapper. Quickly pinch all 4 corners together to seal in the filling. If it doesn't hold, use more water. Keep filled wontons covered with plastic wrap to prevent drying while the others are made.
  • Heat one inch of oil in a deep heavy skillet over medium-high heat, or heat recommended amount of oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Fry wontons for a few minutes on each side, or until golden. Remove to paper towels to absorb excess grease. Enjoy the grinds!

Tips:

  • Choose the right wonton wrappers: Look for square wonton wrappers that are thin and pliable. Thicker wrappers will be more difficult to fold and seal.
  • Make sure the filling is well-chilled: This will help to prevent the wontons from falling apart while they are being cooked.
  • Be careful not to overfill the wontons: Too much filling will make them difficult to fold and seal.
  • Fold the wontons tightly: This will help to prevent the filling from leaking out.
  • Cook the wontons in batches: Do not overcrowd the pan, or the wontons will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the wontons immediately: They are best when they are hot and crispy.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce: Some popular choices include soy sauce, chili sauce, or duck sauce.

Conclusion:

Hawaiian spam wontons are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these tasty treats at home.
