My conservative mum described these as a "taste sensation"! They are truly beautiful, a mix of flavours that everyone seems to love. Easy to make too, from Kylie Kwong's book "Simple Chinese Cooking". I actually use 150gm minced pork rather than prawns as that's what we prefer; if you're going to do this, just increase the cooking time by a couple of minutes. Prep time does not include 30 minutes refrigeration. Serves 4 as an entree.

Steps:
- For the dressing, combine all ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
- For the wontons, peel and de-vein prawns, then dice meat - you should end up with about 150gm diced prawn meat. Combine meat with rest of wonton ingredients, excluding wrappers, and cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Fill and shape the wontons as desired; seal by running a finger dipped in water around the edges. (Kylie lays out how to fill beautiful-looking wontons step by step in her book, but I can't describe it properly!).
- Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil and drop wontons, in batches, into the water and cook for 2 minutes or until just cooked - test one to be sure.
- Remove wontons with a slotted spoon and drain. Arrange wontons on a platter and serve immediately, drizzled with plenty of dressing.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my wontons didn't turn out as good as I expected. The filling was a bit dry and the wonton wrappers were too thick.
