Wonton filling
- 2 specklebelly goose breasts, cut into small cubes
- 1/4 cup sweet red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
- 4 oz water chestnuts, sliced
- 1/2 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tbsp cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp soy sauce, low sodium
- 1 tbsp Hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
Wonton wrapper
- 12 oz wonton wrappers, 25-30
Add all of the wonton filling ingredients to a food processor and pulse to blend into a minced meat texture.
Place 1 teaspoon of the wonton filing into the center of the wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water and seal forming a triangle. Bring the two side points up and over the filling and pinch the ends. Repeat until done.
Fill a large pot with water and bring to a low boil on the stove. Working in batches, gently drop about 10 goose wontons into the water so not to overcrowd. Cook the first batch for 2-3 minutes or until the wontons float to the top.
Remove the wontons with slotted spoon, drain and set aside. Repeat until all the wontons are cooked.
Serve the goose wontons with steamed rice and garnish with green scallions and chili oil.
- Waterfowl wontons can be made with other goose breast meat or with other duck breast meat. The sizes of the breast meat will vary.
- You can process all wonton filling ingredients and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight to marinate before making the wontons. This step enhances the overall aromatics and flavor of the wonton filling.
