Cuisine: Chinese
Difficulty: Medium
Ingredients:
1 pound minced pork or other meat
1 beaten egg
2 TSP Chinese cooking wine
1 TSP sesame oil
1/8 cup chicken stock
50 Wonton wrappers
1 TSBP sweet soy sauce
2 TSP chili oil

Instructions:
To make the meat mixture, mix in 400g minced pork, 1 beaten egg, 2 TSP Chinese cooking wine, 1 TSP sesame oil and 1/8 cup chicken stock.
To make the wontons, place a wonton wrapper flat in your hand, add in a small spoonful of meat mixture, rub water on the edge of the wonton wrapper and seal up the wonton by joining the opposite tips together so that it forms a pyramid shape, making sure all the edges are sealed.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and reduce to a simmer.
Add in the wontons one by one.
When the water boils again, turn off the heat.
Use a slotted spoon to remove each wonton from the pot, leaving as much water as you can behind.
To make the wonton sauce, mix 2 TBSP sweet soy sauce and 2 TSP chili oil.
Drizzle sauce over the wontons.
To garnish, add scallions and/or coriander on top.
Freeze any leftover uncooked wontons.
