1/2 lb cabbage
1/2 md onion
1/2 lb lean ground beef
1 egg
1 tb flour
1 tb soya sauce
1 ds salt and pepper
1 pk wonton skins or wrappers

Directions
  • Boil Cabbage and onion until cooked. Grind finely.
  • Put the cooked cabbage and onion in cheese cloth and squeeze to remove moisture.
  • Mix cabbage and onions with remaining ingredients, up to wonton skins.
  • Open wonton package, taking one at a time, so thay won't dry out, wet two edges with egg white and drop filling mixture onto center.
  • Fold into triangle and seal, making sure there is no air left inside. Once your triangles are all made, drop into boiling water until they float.
  • Leave them in the boiling water for 1 minute and then remove them immediately. Let them dry on a tray until the skin is no longer sticky to the touch. Dry on both sides. A fan may speed up the process.
