Method:

1. Put 250 g pork mince, 125 g chopped raw prawn meat, 1/4 cup chopped bamboo shoots, 3 finely chopped spring onions, 3 chopped mushrooms, 1 stick of chopped celery, 1/2 a chopped capsicum, 1 tablespoon dry sherry, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil and 1/2 teaspoon chopped chili in a bowl. Mix well. Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling in the centre of each won ton wrapper. Brush the edges with a little water.

2. Fold over to make a triangle with the points slightly overlapping. Press together firmly. Bring two ends together to make a round dumpling. Press the ends together firmly. (Alternatively, gather the wrapper around filling to form a pouch, slightly open at the top.)

3. Deep-fry in hot oil for 4-5 minutes or steam in a bamboo or metal steamer for 25-30 minutes. Serve with dipping sauce.
