Today I wrap my wantan in a different way from the normal standard way of wrapping wantan.
I found out that by putting some fillings at the corner of the square wantan skin and fold it up and seal with some water and leave a large portion of the wantan skin untouched. So when you fry it in hot oil the wantan skin is very crispy. When you bite into it, you can feel and hear the crunchy sound (lol). Even without any filling, just frying the wantan skin makes a good snack. You can put some salad, etc on top of the empty wantan skin and it can create a new dish.
Ingredients
Filling (A):
50g shelled prawns, minced
100g pork, minced
20g water chestnuts, chopped finely (optional)
20 to 30 pieces of wantan skin
Seasoning:
1/2 tbsp light soy sauce
Pinch of pepper
few drops sesame oil
1/2 tsp corn flour
Method
Place one teaspoon of the filling in the corner of each wantan wrapper. Fold and seal the edges of each with a bit of water.Heat enough oil in a wok until just hot. Put in wantan in batches and deep-fry until golden brown in colour. Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve the crispy wantan with the dipping sauce.
