To make the wontons…

1. Combine pork, shrimp, half of green onions, oyster sauce, and white pepper in a medium bowl. Mix until just combined.
2. Working one at a time, place a small scoop of the filling onto the center of the wonton wrapper. Wet the edges of the wrapper and fold in half to seal. Bring the two corners together and press one on top of the other, wetting the interface between the two corners to get them to stick.
3. Boil wontons for about 5 minutes, then drain. Serve with spicy sauce and remaining green onions.

To make the sauce…

1. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add grated shallot, ginger, and garlic to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. Add brown sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, water, and chili flakes, and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Remove from heat and serve topped with wontons and green onions.
