My father was a big time lover of all things jalapeno. He really loved 2 things, (other than my mom!) green olives stuffed with garlic and jalapeno, and jalapeno poppers, those breaded deep fried pub type goodness. Well, he tried to duplicate them at home, but you had to roast the jalapeno to skin it or your breading would not stick. About this time, #1 son (me) who is also a mad scientist developed the late night college delicacy of Peanut butter wontons. When I was in college, my roommates and I all met in Karate, and eventually got house together. We dived in to all things Asian and regularly did stirfry. For some reason, having spent all of our money on Milwaukee's best we were short on food. We had a deep fryer, wonton skins and peanut butter and jelly. I did what any mad scientist will do, I stuffed the peanut butter in the wonton and fried it. dipped in jelly they were down right sinful. We put anything that moved into them, taco meat, refried beans, nutello, peanutbutter and chocolate, ALL AMAZING. Well, I tell dad about my discovery and he gets to thinking. Next day he chopps a bunch of jalapenos, green onion, mixes in some garlic, cream cheese and wrapps up a bunch of wontons. Deep frys them and the disappeared in a flash. They are amazing! Dad called them Pepper Raccoons cause they looked like crab rangoon.
you can prep these quite quickly. Just chop up as much jalapeno as you like, blend with the cream cheese and we always lked the onion added in. about a teaspoon in the wonton skin and seal it up. At this point if you freeze them, they keep for a couple of months, pull them out of the freezer while the oil heats up and they are ready to fry.
make lots they are quite addictive.
