These are tasty appetizers. If I'm planning on serving them to company, I make them ahead, freeze them and then re-heat them.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb ground beef
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons chopped green peppers
7 1/2 ounces cans refried beans
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
4 dozen square wonton skins
oil (for frying)
salsa
Directions:
1. Filling: In a large skillet, cook ground beef, onion and green pepper until meat is browned and vegetables are tender.
2. Drain off fat.
3. Stir beans, cheese, ketchup, chile powder and cumin into meat mixture and mix well.
4. Place a won-ton skin with 1 point towards you, spoon a generous teaspoon of meat mixture onto center of skin, fold bottom point over filling and tuck point under filling.
5. Fold side corners over filling, forming an envelope shape.
6. Roll up remaining corner, moisten point with water and seal.
7. Fry in hot oil (375°) about 1 minute per side.
8. Drain, serve warm with salsa.
9. These can also be frozen after cooking.
