Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Prawns
- 8 sheets Coconut wraps
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Peel and devein the prawns, then chop them into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
Add the grated ginger, minced garlic, green onions, coconut aminos, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the mixing bowl with the prawns. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
Lay out the coconut wraps and cut each sheet into four equal squares to form the base for the wontons.
Place a small spoonful of the prawn mixture in the center of each coconut wrap square.
Fold the coconut wrap over the filling to form a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal the wonton. Repeat for each wrap.
Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the wontons to the skillet in batches, cooking for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the coconut wrap is lightly golden and the prawns are cooked through.
Remove the cooked wontons from the skillet and allow them to cool on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
Garnish the wontons with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Paleo Prawn Wontons with a side of extra coconut aminos for dipping, if desired.
