This is from The Philippine Cookbook. They are just a little bit different than the Chinese variety. My family really likes these. I'm including the sauce recipe but I don't use it. I buy the Chinese plum sauce. Note: Cook time and prep time are estimates. Wontons should be cooked in hot oil until golden brown.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb shrimp, finely chopped
1/4 lb ground pork
1 (6 ounce) can crabmeat
1/4 cup green onion, finely chopped
1 dash garlic powder (i used 1 clove garlic, minced)
salt and pepper, to taste
1 egg
1/4 cup water chestnut, finely chopped
1 (50 count) package wonton wrappers
oil (for deep frying)
1 cup plum preserves
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients except wonton wrapper and blend very well. Wrap about 1/2 teaspoons of filling in each wonton wrapper by folding one side to form a triangle. Seal with a few drops of water; set aside. Deep fry and drain on paper towel. Serve with plum sauce.
