CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

CREAM CHEESE WONTONS

Ingredients

450g cream cheese
1 pkt wonton pastry
30g cajun spice (add this to suit your taste)
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 small sprig curly parsley, chopped
1 tsp salt
1 egg
200g tomato salsa

Method

1.Remove the cream cheese from the fridge and allow to soften.
2.Finely chop the garlic & parsley. In a mixing bowl combine the garlic, parsley, Cajun spice and salt to taste and mix through well. Remember to taste the mixture.
3.Remove the wonton pastry from the plastic and cover with a damp cloth so they won’t dry out. 4.On each square put a teaspoonful of the cream cheese filling. Moisten the edge of pastry with a little egg wash, then fold all edges together and seal firmly. Place on a tray dusted with corn flour to prevent sticking.
5.Using hot oil heated in a Wok or skillet, fry a few at a time on medium heat until golden, then drain on paper towels.
6.To serve, spoon about 30g of the tomato salsa onto the plate or bowl. Then stack about 6 wontons on top of the bush tomato chutney and serve.
