Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fill a small bowl with water.
- 2
In a bowl, mix the ground beef, green onions, salt, garlic powder, pepper, and ginger until well combined.
- 3
Lay several wonton wrappers on a work surface. Place 1-tablespoon portions of the beef mixture on one side of each wrapper. Dip your fingertips in the water and run them around the edges of the wrappers.
- 4
Fold the wrappers in half to make triangles around the filling, then wet your fingertips again and pinch the edges to seal. Move the wontons to a plate, keeping them from overlapping. Repeat with the remaining wontons.
- 5
Working in batches, lightly brush as many wontons as will fit in a single layer in the air fryer basket on one side with sesame oil. Set them in the basket oil-side down, then lightly brush the tops with more sesame oil.

Air fry in the preheated air fryer for 4 minutes, then carefully flip with tongs. Continue cooking until crispy and the edges are golden brown, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and let cool while you cook the remaining wontons.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
