INGREDIENTS

2 tb Peanut oil
1 1/2 tb Grated fresh ginger
2 md Garlic cloves, pressed
2 Tofu cakes, crumbled
1/2 c Finely chopped scallions
2 ts Dark sesame oil
2 tb Tamari soy sauce
50 Wonton wrappers
Bowl of lukewarm water
Cornstarch for dusting

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat peanut oil in a wok.  Sizzle the ginger & garlic briefly then add tofu
& stir-fry for a few minutes. Add scallions, sesame oil & tamari & stir
well.  Set aside to cool.
Set up a work area with wonton wrappers, water & cornstarch. Place a
wrapper in front of you in a diamond position. Drop a heaping teaspoonful
of filling in the centre of the wrapper. Moisten all 4 edges with water &
pull the top corner down to the bottom, folding the wrapper over the
filling to make a triangle. Press edges firmly to make a seal. Bring left &
right corners together above the filling. Overlap the tips of these
corners, moisten with water & press together. Place completed wrapper on
the corn-starch platter & continue till all wrappers are used.
FOR SOUP: Drop wontons into boiling water & cook for 5 minutes. Drain.
TO FRY: Heat 2 to 3 cups of oil in a wok till hot. Deep fry wontons in
batches till golden, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Drain. Serve with dipping
sauce or duck sauce.
Uncooked wontons will keep in the freezer for a good 2 months if well
wrapped.  Thaw before frying, but they can be boiled straight from frozen &
cooked 2 minutes longer.
