Ingredients
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup diced onion
- ¼ cup diced red bell pepper
- ¼ cup frozen corn kernels
- ¼ cup canned black beans drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- ¼ teaspoon cumin
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 24 won ton wrappers
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium high heat.
- In a large bowl, combine garlic, onion, bell pepper, corn, black beans, cilantro, chili powder, cumin salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in cheese and gently toss to combine.
- To assemble the wontons, place wrappers on a work surface. Spoon 1 1/2 teaspoons of the mixture into the center of each wrapper. Using your finger, rub the edges of the wrappers with water. Fold the wrapper over the filling to create a triangle, pinching the edges to seal.
- Working in batches, add wontons to the skillet and fry until evenly golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Serve immediately.
