jiao zi / wonton ...

EP
====

This is more like a jiao zi in wonton shape , i guess my mum
created it herself , since jiao zi should be more oblate,
double-saucer like shape , thicker, chewier skin and flatter,
the edges sealed by pressing together or by crimping . Wrapping
made by dough .
WHILE " wonton " have thinner skin, are sphere-shaped,
and are usually served in broth.




Anyway ... here she made her own style " dumpling "
with mince pork , leeks chopped into small pieces ,
small dried prawns . Seasoning all ingredients together
with sugar / salt / corn starch / little bit soya sauce
/ pepper powder / sesame oil .



Tho it is jiao zi crossover wonton , the flavor is fantabulous .
Shall i give it a special name ????
