Ingredients:
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons minced ginger
3 minced garlic cloves
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon thai sweet chili sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb pork or 1 lb chicken, cubed into 1/4-1/8-inch squares
30 -40 wonton wrappers (i use nasoya brand)
1 cup frying oil
1/2 head cabbage, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 red onion, chopped
4 green onions, chopped
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
salt
Directions:
1. FOR SLAW.
2. Add all vegetable ingredients together, toss with rice vinegar and salt, cover and set aside.
3. FOR SAUCE.
4. Heat up olive oil in frying pan.
5. Lightly toast sesame seeds.
6. Combine all ingredients in pan, bring to a boil. Turn heat to low and simmer.
7. FOR MEAT.
8. Cook cubed chicken or pork until almost done.
9. Add simmering sauce to meat. Cook through.
10. FOR WONTONS.
11. Heat oil to frying temperature.
12. Fry wontons in a taco shape (I find this is most easily done by letting the wontons cook for a second or two, then folding them in half. Make sure you leave enough space to put the meat filling in the taco and not seal them shut).
13. Assemble wontons by adding meat filling in center. Sprinkle with slaw that has been set aside.
