Ingredients

  • ½ tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp grated ginger
  • 45 g spring onions, finely chopped
  • 8 large shiitake mushrooms
  • 250 g mixed mushrooms, chopped
  • 45 g coriander, chopped
  • 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 16 wonton wrappers (alt. samosa wrappers) 
  • ½ red chilli, sliced
  • Soy sauce
  • Water
  • Sesame or vegetable oil, to shallow fry

Instructions

  1. Combine and heat both oils in a large pan.
  2. Cook the mushrooms for a few minutes, then add the garlic, ginger, and spring onions to the pan. Stir until all the juices have fried off. 
  3. Stir through the coriander and hoisin sauce until everything is combined.
  4. Place a wonton wrapper on a board and dollop about 1/2 tablespoon filling in the middle of the wrapper. Brush the edges with water using your fingers, then carefully fold the pastry over the middle, enclosing the filling and forming a triangle. Pinch the edges using a fork or fingers to seal tight. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
