Ingredients

  • 2 coriander roots, washed & dried well
  • 20 coriander leaves, washed & dried well
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 pinch flaked sea salt
  • 1 large skinless chicken breast, all fat & sinew removed
  • 2 green onions, finely sliced
  • 2 tablespoons ketjap manis (sweet soy sauce)
  • 10 -20 wonton wrappers
  • 100 ml cold water
  • vegetable oil (for frying)
  • kitchen paper towels

Method

  • Scrape and clean coriander roots. Finely chop with garlic and then mash with a little salt to form a paste.
  • Chop chicken until almost minced. Transfer to a bowl and combine with spring onions, garlic mix, sliced coriander leaves and kecap manis.
  • Brush wonton wrapper with water and place about a teaspoon of the mixture in the centre. Then fold in half to form a triangle, turn over and brush the edges with a little more water. Bring the two points up to the top of the wrapper and pinch lightly to form a wonton shape. Continue the process.
  • Preheat oil and fry wontons, in batches, for about 1-2 mins until crisp and golden all over. Drain well on paper towels.
  • Serve wontons with your favourite dipping sauce on the side.
