Preparation steps
1.
Mix together the ingredients for the filling, stirring in one direction only.
2.
Place double layers of wonton wrappers in front of you in a diamond shape. Place a little of the filling on the bottom half of the dough. Fold the bottom corner of dough over the filling and roll it once. Take the outside corners and bring them together, sealing with a little water. Stand the wontons on their flat bases and gently separate the two top flaps. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
3.
Heat about 4' / 10cm oil in a deep pan until gently bubbling then fry the wontons in batches for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on kitchen paper then serve on beds of the mixed leaves with the sweet and sour sauce alongside.
