  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Chinese, Vegetables

 Ingredients List

  • 10 oz Fresh spinach
  • 1 tb Peanut oil
  • 1 Garlic cloves; minced
  • 1/4 c Onion; minced
  • 10 Water chestnuts; minced,
  • -rinsed
  • ; drained
  • 1 lb Won-ton wrappers; (about 60)
  • Salt & pepper; to taste

 Directions

Wash the spinach thoroughly and trim any tough stems. Drain, then dry with
paper towels or a salad spinner. Coarsely chop and set aside.

Place a wok over medium-high heat. When it begins to smoke, add the peanut
oil, then the garlic and onion. Stir-fry 30 seconds. Add the spinach and
water chestnuts and stir fry until the spinach is dry, about 3 minutes.
Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and season with salt and pepper.

When the filling has cooled slightly, form the won tons. Dip you fingers in
warm water and moisten the entire surface of a wrapper. Place 1 teaspoon of
filling in the center of the wrapper and fold it in half. Press the edges
to seal. Bring the ends together and moisten with water; press to seal.
Cover and set aside the finished won tons while shaping the remainder.

Cook the won tons following the directions in the recipe - either in
boiling water or soup stock until they are just tender, or deep-fry them in
3 to 4 cups of peanut oil until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side.

NOTES : Makes 60 won tons. Won tons may be frozen after being shaped. Place
on cookie sheet with sides not touching in the freezer. When completely
frozen place in plastic air tight bag.
