4. Instructions

WONTONS:

5. Place Filling ingredients in a bowl. Use a potato masher to mash until fairly smooth – about 20
mashes. Don’t turn the prawn into a complete paste, small chunks are good.
6. WRAPPING (SEE PHOTOS AND VIDEO):
7. Use My Way (better Wonton Soup experience!) or the Asian Grocery Store Way (easier to pack
for freezing).
8. Lay Wontons on work surface. Use 2 teaspoons to put the Filling on the wontons. Work in
batches of 5 if starting out, up to 15 or 20 if confident. Brush 2 edges with water. Fold to seal,
pressing out air. Brush water on one corner and bring corners together, pressing to seal.
9. Place wrapped wontons into a container with a lid as you work (so they don’t dry out).
