Fried Money Bag Wonton/Shrimp Curry Wonton Money Bag

Ingredients

3 cups frying oil
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 russet potato, diced
1/4 pound shrimp, chopped
1 tablespoon curry powder
3 tablespoons coconut milk
1 tablespoon chives, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
12 wonton wrappers
12 chives, blanched
12 edible flowers
1/2 cup sweet chili sauce

Steps

In a heavy-bottomed pot, heat oil to 350 degrees.
In a pan, add vegetable oil and saute diced potatoes for 5 minutes or until lightly golden. Add shrimp, curry powder and coconut milk; taste for seasoning. Fold in chives, then set aside to come to room temperature.
Fill the center of each wonton wrapper with 1/2 tablespoon of curry filling. Lightly brush water around the filling, fold and close wontons tightly to resemble the shape of a pouch.
Fry wontons for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until golden brown. Decorate each money bag with blanched chives and edible blossoms. Serve immediately, with sweet chili sauce on the side.
