Ingredients

• 200 g Vegan shrimp
• 150 g Firm tofu
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 1 inch piece Ginger
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 30 pieces Vegan wonton wrappers
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0 as needed Water

Directions

Step 1

Crumble the firm tofu onto a clean kitchen towel and gently press to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

Finely chop the vegan shrimp into small pieces. Place them in a mixing bowl.

Step 3

Mince the garlic and ginger and add them to the bowl with the vegan shrimp.

Step 4

Thinly slice the green onions and add them to the bowl.

Step 5

Add the crumbled tofu, soy sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch to the bowl. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until the mixture is well combined.

Step 6

Lay out a vegan wonton wrapper on a clean surface and place about 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center.

Step 7

Moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper with a little water using your finger.

Step 8

Fold the wrapper over the filling to form a triangle, and press the edges to seal, ensuring there are no air bubbles. Optionally fold the two bottom corners together to create a traditional wonton shape.

Step 9

Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 10

Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat.

Step 11

Once hot, carefully add the wontons in a single layer, and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

Step 12

Use a slotted spoon to remove the wontons from the pan and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 13

Serve the vegan prawn wontons hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
