Categories     Appetizers

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 russet potato, peeled and cut into ½-inch (1 cm) pieces
3 cloves garlic, peeled
3 teaspoons salt, divided
1 ½ tablespoons butter, divided
6 tablespoons sour cream
4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
½ shallot, thinly sliced
pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 package wonton wrapper
2 cups oil, for frying
sour cream, to serve

Steps:

  • Add the potatoes, garlic cloves, and 1 teaspoon of salt to a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, until the potatoes are fork-tender.
  • Drain the potatoes and garlic in a colander, and transfer to a bowl.
  • Use a fork or potato masher to mash the potatoes.
  • Add ½ tablespoon of butter, sour cream, Parmesan, and 2 teaspoons of salt to the potatoes and stir to combine.
  • In a small pan, on medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the shallot, a pinch of salt, and pepper and stir.
  • Once the shallots are golden brown, add the thyme and remove from the heat.
  • Add the shallot mixture to the bowl of potatoes and mix to combine.
  • Place 1 tablespoon of the potato mixture in the center of a wonton wrapper. Wet the tip of your finger and brush the edges of the wrapper, folding it in half on the diagonal, pressing down to secure both sides. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture.
  • In a large pot, heat oil to 350˚F (180˚F).
  • Fry the wontons in small batches until golden brown.
  • Transfer the wontons to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Serve with sour cream.
  • Enjoy!

This recipe is very budget-friendly. I was able to make a large batch of wontons for a fraction of the cost of buying them pre-made.

These wontons are a great way to save time in the kitchen. I made a big batch of mashed potatoes on the weekend and then used them to make these wontons during the week.

I got creative with the filling and added some crumbled bacon and shredded cheese to the mashed potatoes. It was a great way to switch things up.

I used whole wheat wonton wrappers and baked these instead of frying them. They were still crispy and delicious, but a healthier alternative.

I added a bit of diced jalapeno to the mashed potato filling for a little extra kick. They turned out amazing!
