Step 1: Filling: Combine all ingredients for filling and refrigerate.
Step 2: Fill a small bowl with water, set aside.
Step 3: Dust a platter or baking sheet liberally with cornstarch. (This will prevent filled wontons from sticking, prior to cooking.).
Step 4: On a cutting board place the wonton wrappers, three at a time, side by side.
Step 5: Into the centre of each one, place about 1 teaspoon of the shrimp filling.
Step 6: Using a small pastry brush, paint two opposite edges of the wonton wrappers with water.
Step 7: Fold the wrapper over so that the ends meet.
Step 8: Gather the edges together like a purse, ruffling the edge. Pinch tightly to ensure it is sealed together.
Step 9: Place on cornstarch dusting baking sheet.
Step 10: Repeat until all filling is used up.
Step 11: Heat a skillet with 2 tablespoons (25 mL) vegetable oil.
Step 12: Place the wontons in the hot oil for about a minute or until browned on the bottom.
