Watercress Wontons

西洋菜雲吞

Ingredients 材料：

Wonton wraps, 1 package   雲吞皮 1 盒
Watercress, 3 bunches   西洋菜 3 札
Flavoured soya bean curd, 1 piece, minced   香豆干（切碎） 1 塊
Carrot, small amount, minced   紅蘿蔔（切碎） 少許

Seasoning 調味料：

Sesame oil, 1 tablespoon   麻油 1 湯匙
Salt, 2 teaspoons   鹽 2 茶匙
White pepper, small amount   白胡椒粉 少許

Cooking Method 做法：

  1. Preparing wonton filling 餡料：
    Place washed watercress in boiling water until water re-boils, drain with cold water, finely chop them up and squeeze water out till dry. Combine watercress with minced flavoured soya bean curd, minced carrot and all seasonings.  Mix well.
    西洋菜洗淨，用開水川燙，再過冷水，將菜切碎，之後盡量搾出菜裡面的水，令菜乾身；再加入香豆干碎、紅蘿蔔碎及調味料拌均。
  1. Preparing wontons 包法：
    Place a teaspoon of wonton filling in the centre of a wonton wrap, fold the wonton wrap in half to create a rectangle. Grasp the bottom corners of the rectangle (the filling side, not the seam side), and dab one of the corners with a little water.  Bring the two corners together and squeeze to seal.
    取餡料少許，放在雲吞皮上，然後把皮向上對摺一次，再向下對摺一次，最後，把兩對角沾水少許貼在一起，成元寶狀。
  1. Cooking wontons 煮法：
    Boil the wontons in water until they float to the surface, pour in 1 cup of cold water, and boil until they float to the surface again. Scoop them out to serve.
    水滾放入雲吞，待浮起加冷水1杯，等再浮起，撈入碗內即可。
