Boil Chinese mushrooms for 10 minutes, rinse, squeeze dry, cut off, and
discard stems; then, chop into very small pieces.

Shell, devein and wash prawns. Chop into very small pieces

Peel and crush water chestnuts with the flat side of the cleaver. If you
don't have a cleaver, chop the water chestnuts into very fine pieces.

each wonton.

With one corner of the skin toward you, place 1 teaspoon of filling about
an inch from the corner.

Fold one corner to cover the filling.

Told once more...about 3/4 inch.

Turn the won ton so that the triangel is toward you. Dampen the left corner
with a little water.

Swing the right corner away from you and place it on top of the dampened
left corner. As you make this fold, simultaneously pull the filling toward
you with your middle finger. You should finish with a little "hat-like"
effect.
