Crab wontons with tomato salsa
Serves 6 Starters and mains
Ingredients
- 4 spring onions
- 350g crabmeat
- 100g pork mince
- 2cm knob of ginger, grated
- 48 wonton wrappers
For the tomato salsa
- 5 tomatoes
- ½ handful coriander leaves, roughly chopped
- ½ long red chilli, seeded and finely chopped
- 1/3tsp sugar
- 2tsp fish sauce oil, for deep-frying
Method
Thinly slice the spring onions. Set aside half the green part for the salsa and discard the remaining. Combine the white part with the crab, pork, ginger, 1/3tsp pepper and ½tsp salt. Mix well. Place a wonton wrapper on a board and top with a spoonful of the crab mixture. Dampen the edges of the wrapper and then place another wonton wrapper on top. Squeeze to remove any air, then press the edges together to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling. For the tomato salsa, remove the seeds from the tomatoes, then cut the tomatoes into 5mm dice. Place in a bowl with the reserved spring onion, coriander leaves, chilli, sugar and fish sauce. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or wok and deep-fry the wontons in batches until cooked through. Drain well on paper towel.
Serve the wontons hot, topped with the tomato salsa.
