- Take the package of Pangsit sheets and fold them in a wet towel (so they won't dry out).

- Put a Pangsit sheet in front of you and take about 2 teaspoons of ground beef and roll a ball of the meat.
- Put that in the middle of the sheet.
- Wet your fingers and fold the sheet to the inside. Pinch with your wet fingers and make sure it's closed.
- Repeat this until all the sheets or meat are done.
- Preheat the fryer to 355 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

NOTES
- You can also steam the wontons. Put a steamer on top of boiling water and steam the wontons until done in about 10 minutes.
- You can substitute the ground beef with ground chicken.
- If you want a vegan (and therefore vegetarian) wonton, replace the beef with shiitakes. They've got a lot of flavors.
- Fried wontons are delicious just eaten plain, but also very tasty with a sweet chili sauce or salty soy sauce with roasted sesame seeds.
- These snacks are delicious at an Asian buffet.
