Health for life

Been born as a South Indian,my love for chinese foods pulled me to make some wontons at home itself with store bought wonton wrappers i picked from my favourite chinese store.Usually we buy already prepared prawn wontons from the frozen section, but last time when i picked a packet of those famous frozen wontons, for my surprise some wontons are prepared with pork, i immediately left the packet there itself. Now am keeping myself away from those frozen ones.

 Everyone at home started asking for some wontons, finally i decided to make myself at home.I checked few of the chinese sites to get a better idea of making wontons at home and i found that they are very easy when compared to our Indian samosas.

It took less than half an hour for me to make almost 30 numbers of wontons.Needless to say how fast they gets vanished, we just loved it and got some beautiful appreciation from everyone at home, especially from my lil one he told me never to buy those frozen wontons and gave me a big hug as he loved very much these homemade chicken wontons, watelse a mom need na.Sending to Julies Flavors of Cuisine-Chinese.
