Method

Blend together ingredients. Drop approximately 1 teaspoonful on each wonton wrapper, just slightly off center. Fold in half diagonally and seal with water, forming a triangle. Fry in hot canola oil until crispy and light golden brown. Serve with Oriental dipping sauces.

 

Notes: Recipe is easily doubled. This is also an excellent side dish for stir fry and Oriental noodle bowls.

 

Number of Servings: Serves 6
