Shrimp Wontons With Sweet Sauce image

Yummy little appetizers that are fried crisp with a sweet dipping sauce. You could also opt to make little beggar purses and steam them to put in a soup. Great for OAMC too. :)

Time 30m

Yield 30 Wontons, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1/2 lb cooked shrimp, shelled, deveined and chopped into pieces
1 green onion, chopped fine
4 water chestnuts, chopped fine
1 egg white
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon oil
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1 green onion, sliced on the bias
1/2 cup peach halve in juice (or 1 very ripe peach with skin and pit removed)
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
2 drops hot sauce (optional)
24 wonton wrappers
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • WONTONS: Mix filling ingredients together thoroughly. Refrigerate mixture for 1 hour.
  • SAUCE: In a small saucepan, heat pineapple juice with the green onion. Simmer until green onion is tender.
  • Run the peaches and marmalade through a food processor till chopped very fine. Add to saucepan. Add remaining ingredients and simmer, stirring occasionally, until heated through and reduced to your desired thickness.
  • Meanwhile, Remove filling from fridge and place a spoonful into the center of each wonton wrapper. Lightly wet half of the edges of the wrappers with water. Fold the wrapper over the filling, forming a half moon (or triangle for square wonton wrappers) and seal completely. NOTE: you can freeze the wontons at this point for OAMC).
  • Over low to medium heat 2 tablespoons oil (more if/as needed) into a skillet. Fry wontons (in batches) until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt if desired. Serve with dipping sauce.
  • If freezing, thaw to room temperature before frying.

These shrimp wontons were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I'm not a big fan of shrimp, but I really enjoyed these wontons. The sweet sauce was the perfect complement to the shrimp.

The shrimp wontons were good, but they didn't live up to the hype. I was expecting something more flavorful.

These shrimp wontons were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

The wontons were a bit difficult to fold, but the end result was worth it. The shrimp filling was flavorful and the sweet sauce was the perfect dipping sauce.

The shrimp wontons were delicious, but the sweet sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste.

These shrimp wontons were a hit with my family! The sweet sauce was the perfect complement to the savory wontons. I will definitely be making these again.
