Vegetable wonton recipes
Wontons are predominantly made with meat, especially fatty pork as they are juicier.
But with good food, there are always people who are very creative who dream up wontons that contain no meat.
The best thing is that it is not only the vegetarians that benefit, we who eat almost anything can savour such creative parcels too.
Mixed vegetable wontons
