For Sweet and Sour Dip
- Sour cream: I like to use a full-fat sour cream, but you can use a low-fat one if you prefer.
- Cream cheese: The cream cheese should be at room temperature so that it is easy to combine.
- Sweet and sour sauce: Use your favorite brand. I used La Choy.
- Veggies: Green bell pepper, red bell pepper, spring onions, carrot.
- Cilantro: for that fresh flavor.
- Sriracha: for that slight heat kick, highly recommend adding this!
- Salt and pepper: Added to taste.
- Sesame seeds: Optional for garnishing.
For wonton chips
- Wonton wrappers: You can get wonton wrappers in my superstores or find them in Asian grocers.
- Oil: It's easiest to use spray oil for this recipe.
- Sea salt: Added to taste for seasoning.
Step by step instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F, line the baking sheet with aluminum foil, and lightly spray it with cooking oil.

Recipe Tips
- Soften the cream cheese so that it is easy to combine. I like to take it out of the fridge 30 minutes before I'm ready to make the recipe.
- Alternately, you can microwave for 10-15 seconds to soften it slightly, making it easier to mix.
- Cut the veggies into small similar-sized pieces so they evenly disperse in the sauce.
- Keep the sweet and sour dip covered in the fridge until you are ready to serve it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you make it ahead of time?
Yes, this is a great make-ahead appetizer. The dip will keep well covered in the fridge for 2 to 3 days and the wonton chips can be stored in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to a week.
What other seasonings can you use for wonton chips?
I like to bake these chips with just a little sea salt, but you can easily make them to your tastes by adding other seasonings before baking. Paprika, cumin, black pepper, grated parmesan, and garlic salt all work well.
What do you serve the dip with?
The wonton chips work well with this Asian dip, but you can also serve it with breadsticks, veggie sticks, or pretzels.

This was a big hit for my foodie guests! I only put 1 tbsp of the sweet and sour and that worked great. Will definitely make again for future parties.Reply

This was delicious. I used way more of the hot sauce but it would have been fine just as written. Everyone asked for the recipe. I doubled it expecting to have leftovers but it’s gone.Reply
Shweta Arora
Makes me so happy to read this!! Thank you so much for trying the recipe and sharing your feedback and yes to more hot sauce!!

I made it along side my Ahi Tuna Tataki platter. It was a bit sweet for me but I am not a big fan
of sweet dips BUT....it was a hit at my gourmet group! I will definitely make again!! The Won Ton chips...perfect. I have been making Won Ton crackers for many years to serve with my hummus tray but these are so much quicker! Making again tomorrow for dinner guests!Reply
