Thanksgiving Wontons Recipes

THANKSGIVING WONTONS WITH CRANBERRY SALSA

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together turkey, stuffing, cream cheese, and 3 tablespoons cranberry sauce.
• In a small bowl, stir together the remaining cranberry sauce with the lime juice and jalapeno. Refrigerate until needed.
• Place 1 tablespoon of turkey filling in center of each wonton wrapper. Keep remaining wrappers covered with a damp paper towel so they don't dry out. Moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper with water. Fold wrapper over the filling to form a triangle and press edges to seal. Repeat.
• Pour about 1 to 2 inches of oil in a Dutch oven. Heat oil to 375 degrees. Before you drop the wontons in the oil, check to make sure edges are completely sealed. Fry wontons 4 at a time until golden brown on both sides. This will only take 30 to 60 seconds per side.
• Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve with cranberry salsa.

Steps:

• Bring the broth, onion, and celery to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender, stirring often. Remove from heat. Add the stuffing and mix lightly. In a large bowl, mash together the potatoes, vegan butter, and nondairy milk until slightly creamy. Stir in the minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Add 1/2 tablespoonful of mashed potatoes and 1/2 tablespoonful of stuffing to the middle of each wonton wrap. Bring all four corners together and "glue" the tips closed using a small amount of water on your fingertips. Brush top of each wonton with a drop of oil. Vegetable or olive oil works. Bake wontons for 10-15 mins, or until browned. Serve with gravy.
