What You'll Need
- 1/4 pound ground pork
- 3 scallions (green onions), thinly sliced, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

What to Do
- In a medium bowl, combine ground pork, one-third of the sliced scallions, the ginger, and garlic powder; mix well.
- Place wonton skins on a work surface then place 1 teaspoon pork mixture in center of each. Brush beaten egg around edges of a wonton skin then fold in half diagonally to make a triangle.
- Fold 2 opposite points up to top point and seal with a dab of beaten egg; fold down top edge toward you and secure with another dab of beaten egg. Repeat with each remaining wonton.
