Why You’ll Love Bibigo Mini Wontons

Bigigo Mini Wontons are a favorite among parents and kids alike. Here are some reasons why frying them up in your air fryer is likely to make them a hit for your whole family:

• Convenience: There’s no thawing or prep required; simply put them straight from the freezer into the air fryer.
• Crispy and delicious: While the wontons are very tasty on their own, the air fryer gives them a crunchy, golden outside and a tender, flavorful inside.
• Healthier option: This is a crispy snack that doesn’t require deep-frying, so it’s both healthier to eat and safer to cook than traditionally fried foods.
• Versatility: You can use these as a snack, an appetizer, or part of your main meal. The wontons go well with a variety of dipping sauces and side dishes.

Air Fryer Bibigo Mini Wontons Ingredients

When it comes to these mini wontons, you can use as few or as many ingredients as you like. To make them in the most simple way, you need just two things:

• A package of Bibigo Mini Wontons
• Cooking spray

From there, you can branch out and add a variety of toppings, seasonings, dipping sauces, and accompaniments. We’ll talk about those below.

How to Cook Bibigo Mini Wontons in the Air Fryer

1. Preheat your air fryer to 380 degrees. Allow it to get up to the right temperature before adding your wontons, as this will help keep them crispy.
2. Lightly spray the frozen wontons on each side with cooking spray. This is another way to help crisp them up.
3. Once the air fryer is preheated, arrange the wontons in a single layer in the air fryer basket. For best results, make sure they’re not overlapping.
4. Air fry them for 6-9 minutes, shaking the basket or using tongs to flip the wontons halfway through. Check them after 6 minutes, and if they aren’t as crisp as you’d like, give them one or two minutes more.
5. Serve and enjoy!

Alternate Cooking Method: Pan-fried Wontons

If you don’t have an air fryer, you can pan-fry your Bibigo Mini Wontons. 

1. Heat two tablespoons of oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
2. Add the frozen wontons in a single layer. If you have more than what will fit in your pan, cook them in two batches.
3. Cook them for about 5 minutes, stirring them around occasionally.
4. Remove them from the heat once they’re golden brown and crispy.
5. If desired, you can drain your wontons on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
6. Serve and enjoy.

Serving Suggestions for Bibigo Mini Wontons

One nice thing about these mini wontons is that you can fry them up and eat them with no further preparation. If you do want to get a bit creative or add them to more ingredients to make a heartier snack or a full meal, though, here are some ideas:

• Serve with dipping sauces. Asian-style sauces are the most popular. How about soy sauce, hoisin, peanut sauce, sweet chili sauce, duck sauce, or, if you want something spicy, a bit of sriracha?
• Add to soups. If you’re making a bowl of ramen or miso soup, go ahead and toss in a few cooked mini wontons.
• Add to stir-fries. You can make a stir fry using Bibigo mini wontons; if you do this, use cooked wontons in place of rice.
• Put them on a salad. Make a nice green salad or one made with cabbage and green onions, then put some crispy mini wontons on top to add protein and fat.
• Add seasonings. Whether you want to eat your wontons on their own or as part of a meal, think about adding seasonings. Garlic powder, onion powder, or five-spice seasoning can add a kick of flavor. For a bit more spice, consider chili oil or red pepper flakes.

Achieving Perfectly Air-Fried Bibigo Wontons

There can be a bit of a learning curve when making Bibigo wontons in the air fryer. Here are a few tips on helping them turn out their best.

• Don’t overcrowd the basket. The way your air fryer works is by creating lots of airflow throughout the fryer on all sides of each item. Try not to have your wontons touching, and definitely avoid overlapping them.
• Shake the basket or flip your wontons halfway through. This will help your snack cook more evenly and will help both sides to get crisp.
• Use the spray oil. Some items create enough of their own oil to crisp up without any added fat in the air fryer. These wontons, however, really benefit from having that bit of oil applied directly to them. If you don’t have spray oil, you can gently toss them in a couple of tablespoons of the oil of your choice before putting them in your air fryer.
• Preheat your fryer. You want your air fryer to be piping hot before putting your items in; this will help them get crispy and avoid sogginess.
• Watch the timer. All air fryers are different and yours might take a minute or two more or less than the prescribed time. If you know your fryer tends to cook items quickly, start checking your wontons at the 6-minute mark. If it tends to cook more slowly, check them at 7 minutes, but plan on it taking closer to 8 or even 9 minutes.
