1 can coconut milk
1 cup water or stock
1 cup yellow onion, minced
2 tsp fresh ginger grated
1 Tablespoon garlic, minced

1 Tablespoon Thai basil, slivered

Lime zest if available
2 tsp Kosher Salt
¼ tsp Black pepper, fresh ground ideally
1 quart Grape seed or vegetable oil for frying

FORMING THE WONTONS:
2. Lay with the point of the wrapper facing 12 and 6 o’clock
3. Add 2 teaspoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper
4. Wet one half of the wrapper just along the edge. Fold the other side over and pinch out the air
5. Crisscross the corners over each other and place on parchment, wax paper or a pan lined with corn starch.
6. proceed to the next until all are stuffed
7. At this point, freeze or fry in a pot of oil at 350 degrees
8. Once golden brown, remove from oil with slotted spoon and drain on paper towel.
9. Serve with sauce of your choice. A Thai peanut sauce or sweet chili sauce such as May Ploy would both compliment this flavor combination.
