In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, oyster sauce, and 1 tablespoon sesame oil; add the ground pork, shrimp, and 1 chopped green onion and mix to combine.

Lay one wonton skin in front of you like a baseball diamond. Using your finger, brush beaten egg around the outer edge of the wonton skin. Place 1 tablespoon of the pork mixture in the center of the wonton skin. Fold the 'home run' corner to the '2nd base' corner to form a triangle and press down. The meat filling lump should be at the bottom of the triangle. Brush egg mixture on the '1st base' and '3rd base' corners of the triangle. Fold each base corner over the meat filling lump and over each other. Brush egg mixture on the '2nd base/homerun' corner of the triangle and fold it behind the meat filling lump. This makes one wonton. Repeat until there is no more mixture or wrapper skins. Keep the wontons covered with a wet towel to prevent them from drying.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil; boil the wontons for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep them from sticking to each other or to the sides of the pot.

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.
