BEEF AND SHIITAKE POT STICKERS INGREDIENTS • 4 oz shiitake mushrooms, stems removed • 8 oz lean ground beef • 1 cup finely grated cabbage • 3 gloves of garlic • 1 “thumb” of fresh ginger • 2 scallions Courtesy of mushrooms.ca and foodwellsaid.com

• 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil • 1 tablespoon tamari

• 2 tablespoons soy sauce • 1 teaspoon ground pepper • 36 2-inch wonton wrappers • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

DIRECTIONS 1. Cut and and mix the first ten ingredients thoroughly in a bowl (mushrooms through pepper).

2. Fill a small bowl with lukewarm water. Scoop out 1 teaspoon of mixture from step 1 and place just off centre of each wonton. Flatten the mixture slightly and moisten the edges of the wrapper and fold the dough over to create a triangle. Press the edges down firmly to ensure they are sealed. 3. Add the vegetable oil to a large skillet and heat to med-high. In single layer batches, fry the wontons until golden brown and crisp. 4. Serve immediately with side of soy or favourite Asian sauce.
