Ingredients

Method

  1. Heat the oil to 400 degrees in a large deep pot.
  2. While the oil is Heating, gently unfold the bundle right stick and spread them apart. Don't worry it's on the piece of break. They can still be fried. Cut the wonton wrappers into 1/4 inch strips and toss to separate the pieces.
  3. When the oil is hot, place all the rice sticks in the pan, pressing down gently with the wire skimmer (if they won't all fit, then fry half at a time.). They will puff immediately. Cried for about 5 Seconds. Fry wonton strips for about 30 seconds, Or until golden brown.
  4. Remove immediately with the wire skimmer, and drain on several layers of paper towels. Allow the rice sticks for 1 ton straight cool.
  5. Gently crush the fried rice stick with your hands. Store either topping at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 24 hours.
