Din Tai Fung Spicy Wonton Sauce

Step 1

Place all ingredients for the spicy sauce in a saucepan or skillet. Cook over medium heat to bring it to sizzle and then lower the heat and keep stirring to let the sugar melts and take care not to burn the chili flakes and garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes and then remove from the heat. Have a taste and adjust seasonings as needed. It should be spicy, savory, with just a hint of sweetness and tang

Step 2

This can be kept in a glass jar. Let it cools down and keep in the fridge for 2-3 weeks

Step 3

I bought store-bought pork and shrimp wontons. Bring water to a boil and cook according to the instructions on the package. When they are done, remove from the pot and submerge briefly in cold water to stop the cooking process and then drain off water

Step 4

Drizzle the spicy chili sauce on the wontons. The amount is up to you. I think about 10 wontons with 1-2 Tbsp of the spicy wonton sauce is a good start. You can always adjust to your preference. Toss the wontons with the sauce. Garnish with chopped green onion
