INSTRUCTIONS
* Note: See the "Emeril's Essence Information" recipe which is included in
this collection.
In a saucepan, combine the ham hocks, stock, bay leaf, garlic clove and
onions together. Bring the liquid to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer
the ham hocks until the meat is very tender and falling off the bones,
about 2 hours. Remove from the heat and cool. Remove the ham hocks from the
liquid and shred the meat. In a saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil
is hot, add the leeks and saute for 1 minute. Add the pulled ham hock meat
and garlic and saute for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and cool. In a
mixing bowl, combine the sauteed ham hock meat, goat's cheese and parsley
together. Mix well. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Place 1
tablespoon of the filling in the center of each wonton. Lightly wet the
edges of the wrappers with a little water. Bring one corner of the wrapper
to the other and seal completely. Place the wontons, a couple at a time, in
the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the
wontons from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the wontons
with Emeril's Essence. This recipe yields about 3 dozen.
