Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Prawns, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
- 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
- 20 pieces Gluten-free wonton wrappers
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Finely chop the prawns into small pieces and place them into a mixing bowl.
Add gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, rice vinegar, green onions, cilantro, salt, and pepper to the prawns. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
Lay out one gluten-free wonton wrapper on a lightly floured surface using cornstarch to prevent sticking.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the prawn mixture onto the center of the wonton wrapper.
Dampen the edges of the wonton wrapper with a hint of water.
Fold the wrapper in half to create a triangle, pressing gently to seal the edges and ensure there are no air pockets.
Bring the two furthest points of the triangle together and pinch to seal, forming a traditional wonton shape.
Repeat the process with remaining wrappers and filling until all are used.
Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat.
Carefully drop the wontons into the boiling water, cooking in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Cook the wontons for about 4-5 minutes or until they float to the surface and the prawns inside are fully cooked.
Remove the wontons using a slotted spoon and drain well.
Serve the gluten-free prawn wontons with a side of dipping sauce of choice and enjoy hot.
