Ingredients
  

  • Olive Oil
  • 1 Package wonton wrappers
  • Pork Filling
  • 1½ lbs ground pork or ground chicken
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon white pepper
  • 2 green onions finely sliced
  • Creamy Sauce No Miso, No Sugar
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese softened
  • 1½ tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • Cheese Layer
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella or fontina
  • For Serving
  • Chili crisp or chili oil
  • Sliced scallions

Method
 

  1. Step 1 – Brown the pork
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, white pepper, and green onions.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork mixture and cook, breaking it up, until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Step 2 – Make the creamy sauce
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, cream cheese, soy sauce, and rice vinegar until smooth.
  6. Step 3 – Assemble the lasagna
  7. Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  8. Spread a thin layer of the creamy sauce on the bottom of the dish.
  9. Quickly dip each wonton wrapper into a shallow dish of water (just 1–2 seconds — do not soak). Layer the wrappers in the dish, slightly overlapping.
  10. Add an even layer of the browned pork, drizzle with sauce, and sprinkle with cheese.
  11. Repeat layers 3–4 times, finishing with sauce and cheese on top.
  12. Step 4 – Bake
  13. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
  14. Uncover and bake an additional 10–15 minutes, until bubbly and lightly golden on top.
  15. Step 5 – Rest & serve
  16. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Finish with chili crisp and sliced scallions before serving.

Notes

  • One package of wonton wrappers is plenty for a full 9×13-inch dish.
  • Lightly dipping the wrappers in water helps them soften and bake up tender without tearing.
  • This dish slices best after resting and reheats beautifully.
