You can't go wrong!
It's a tiny bit laborious in terms of folding the little parcels, but really it's just a few left-over bits of meat, a few herbs and 'bob's your uncle'!
mix together:
100g raw minced prawns
100g raw minced pork
5 water chestnuts finely chopped
1tsp soy sauce
1tsp shaoxing rice wine
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp sesame oil
black pepper
1/2 tsp chopped ginger
1 tsp cornflour
place a small dollop of the mixture into the centre of a wonton wrapper and fold as shown here.
Place the wontons into a rich chicken stock flavoured with soy, fresh chilli, fish sauce, lime juice, rice wine, egg noodles, a few spring onions and some coriander.
The wontons can be frozen and popped directly into the hot stock for a quick dinner!


I've had a request to add a time onto this -
ReplyDelete5 mins from fresh
8-10 mins from frozen

ReplyDeletewhat's a chicken "stock"...

Julia
Hey Julia! You must be able to find wonton wrappers in Paris non? I'm thinking in porte de choisy.
ReplyDeleteAlso, chicken stock - we need to discuss. It's bouillon... but i guess for this one you should make it quite mild and flavour with soy sauce, and chinese rice wine, or it will taste western.
Maybe use a brand called 'Knorr'? or of course make your own. (Will blog this one day for you)
... but yes, i'll be over soon to help. x
