Wontons


 x









Mama bought some wonton skins, so I just make wontons out of random things I found. steps;

1) fry the stuff together.
I used parsley, bean sprouts, mushrooms, scallions, fresh ginger, lemon zest, soy sauce, sesame seeds and sesame seed oil.
 I ended up having to make another batch once I realized there wouldn't be enough filling, and I used what little I had left of the bean sprouts, a carrot (I just used a potato peeler to cut it), an egg and the rest was the same.

2) put a spoonful of stuffing onto the wonton skin
Sima helped me with this part

3) close the wonton. use water as glue.
I put water on two adjacent edges, took one corner and attached to the corner across, and stuck together the sides. You can make other shapes, but I stuck with the simplest one.

3) you can make soup or steam or fry them
 I fried, used safflower oil because I figured it can get to a high temperature and that might be better. Also, it's a new thing in the house so I just wanted to use it, dunno if it actually makes a difference.


Additionally, I made miso soup and Mama made Jasmine rice. 
The sauce was soy/sesame/honey/ginger

and that was dinner.
