- Place a teaspoonful filling in the middle of a wonton skin. Lightly rub some water around the edges of the wonton skin. Fold into half and pinch the edges to seal. Repeat until all the filling is used up.
- Bring a pot of water to boil and gently poach the dumplings for about 7 minutes or until cooked through. Drain dry and place them in a serving bowl.
