Thai Shrimp Dumplings


1. Filling: Combine all ingredients for filling and refrigerate.

2. Sauce: Combine all ingredients for sauce and set aside.

3. Fill a small bowl with water, set aside.

4. Dust a platter or baking sheet liberally with cornstarch. (This will prevent filled wontons from sticking, prior to cooking.).

5. On a cutting board place the wonton wrappers, three at a time, side by side.

6. Into the centre of each one, place about 1 teaspoon of the shrimp filling.

7. Using a small pastry brush, paint two opposite edges of the wonton wrappers with water.

8. Fold the wrapper over so that the ends meet.

9. Gather the edges together like a purse, ruffling the edge. Pinch tightly to ensure it is sealed together.

10. Place on cornstarch dusting baking sheet.

11. Repeat until all filling is used up.

12. Heat a skillet with 2 tablespoons (25 mL) vegetable oil.

13. Place the wontons in the hot oil for about a minute or until browned on the bottom.

14. Add sauce and put the lid on, reduce heat to low.

15. Cook for 1 more minute with the lid on and the heat turned off.

16. Let Stand 1 minute with heat off.
