How To Make
-
1️⃣ Finely chop the meat and mix in some cooking wine, minced ginger, and salt (make sure to add enough—too little will make it bland). Add a pinch of sugar to enhance the flavor, and stir in one direction.
-
2️⃣ Clean the watercress, blanch it, squeeze out excess water, and chop it finely. (Note ⚠️—the greens may still release water, so be sure to squeeze again.)
-
3️⃣ Soak the shiitake mushrooms in water, chop them finely, and mix them into the meat filling. Continue stirring in one direction.
-
4️⃣ Then it's time to wrap the wontons.
-
5️⃣ Make some for the neighbors too.
-
6️⃣ After cooking the wontons, place them in the prepared sauce with sesame oil, sprinkle with chopped scallions and cleaned dried shrimp.

7️⃣ Time to dig in!😋 My husband polished off 16 in just 5 minutes!🤯 With the pandemic making it impossible to go back, I can only find comfort in hometown flavors❤️.
