Instructions
Preparation
- Gather all your ingredients. Ensure your cream cheese is softened.
- If your wonton wrappers are frozen, thaw them fully.
Mix the Filling
- In a mixing bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, softened cream cheese, honey, and red pepper flakes. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
Assemble the Wontons
- Place one wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Scoop one teaspoon of the feta mixture into the center.
- Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a small amount of water to help seal it. Fold the wrapper into a triangle shape and press firmly to seal.
Fry the Wontons
- In a large skillet, warm the olive oil over medium heat (around 350°F).
- Place wontons into the skillet in batches and fry for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet to ensure even cooking.
Drain and Serve
- Remove cooked wontons with a slotted spoon and let drain on paper towels.
- Drizzle with additional honey once slightly cooled. Garnish with chopped parsley.
- Plate and serve warm.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days. Wontons can be frozen before frying, layered with parchment paper.
