Pinsec Frito (Pork, Shrimp, and Chinese Sausage Wontons)
Pinsec frito are a Filipino-style wonton filled with ground pork, shrimp, and Chinese sausage. The wontons get fried and are served with sweet and sour sauce. When making the filling, I recommend lightly pulsing separately the Chinese sausage and shrimp in a food processor for an even consistency. Other ingredients you can add to the filling include mushrooms, carrots, and green onions. Anything extra wontons that you don’t plan on frying that day can be frozen down on a baking sheet, then stored in freezer bags for later use.
