For this week's Wednesday with Donna Hay, Chaya has chosen Apple and Dark Chocolate Wontons from Donna's website.
These little packages are pretty straight forward - sandwich a pice of apple and a piece of chocolate between two wonton wrappers, brush with melted butter and bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees Celsius:
Dust the finished product with icing sugar to serve.
These wontons tasted nice - crispy on the outside, soft and gooey chocolate contrasting with the tartness of the apple on the inside. It was my first time working with wonton wrappers. I have heaps of them left over, so I hope to make some pot stickers with the remainder.
To see what Chaya, Kayte and Margaret thought of these wontons, visit their websites,
Oh I like the sound of baking these! :D
ReplyDeleteWell it looks like you had success and enjoyed them. It was fun making them once, but probably not a repeat...although by the end of the evening the guys did eat all 7 of the chocolate ones. I ate the butterscotch one and I liked the filling the best...probably just me being jaded expecting a nice little pasta dough with a great filling so I was a bit disappointed in the whole wonton wrapper thing. Fun to try new things, though.
ReplyDeleteNot a fave here, but the filling was nice.
ReplyDeleteWhat size wontons did you have?
I have made many things with wontons. The ones that are fried are the best but as I keep repeating, I am trying to avoid frying.
ReplyDeleteA few times during the year, I get wontons and experiment. These were not close to the best but they were eaten.
yum - and I liked them even more when you said they were baked - baking is less of a challenge with wanton wrappers than steaming or frying
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I love the sound of these, and how easy they would be to make.
