Ingredients
  

  • 10 ounces Shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 3 1/2 ounces Ground Pork (not lean)
  • 3 medium Scallion chopped finely
  • 2 thin slices of Fresh Ginger roughly chopped
  • 25 Wonton Wrappers
  • 1 tablespoon All-Purpose Flour to stop the wontons from sticking
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Light Soy Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Rice Wine
  • 1/4 teaspoon White Pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sesame Oil

Instructions
 

  • Place half the shrimp and pork in a food processor, along with the ginger and all of the seasonings, then blend together.
  • Chop the remaining shrimp and add it to the blended mixture, along with the scallions. Mix well.
  • Put a teaspoon of the shrimp mixture into the middle of a wonton wrapper and close it tightly with your fingers, brushing the edges with a little water to help them stick if necessary.
  • As you wrap each wonton, place it on a plate covered with a thin layer of flour to prevent sticking.
  • Bring a pot of water or broth to a boil and cook the wontons in batches, for around 5 minutes. When they are cooked, they will float to the top of the pot.
  • Your wontons are now ready to serve.
