Wontons

{Homemade Wontons with Dipping Sauce}
adapted from this recipe
1/4 head green cabbage
1 onions
1 large carrots
1/2 T ginger
3/4 t salt
1/2 t red pepper flakes
1/2 lb ground beef
1/4 t black pepper
1 tsp minced garlic
1 egg
1 pkg won ton wrappers
flour and water (1 part flour to 2 parts water)

Chop the veggies up super small. Mix the veggies, seasonings, and hamburger together. Add the egg and mix well. Mix the flour and water together to make a paste. Lay won ton wrappers out. Dip your finger in the paste and then coat the inside edges of the wrappers with it. Place about 1 T of meat mixture into the center of each wrapper. Fold the edges of each wrapper together, and press so the paste has a chance to seal. Repeat with all wrappers.

In an electric skillet heat 1 T olive oil. Fry the won tons over medium heat (covered) for about 5-6 minutes. Remove the lid, turn the won tons over and cook for another 5-6 minutes (uncovered).

{Dipping Sauce}
1/2 C jalapeno pepper jelly
1/4 C rice vinegar
2 Tbsp soy sauce

Heat the jelly in the microwave until it liquifies. And, the rice vinegar and soy sauce. Whisk to combine.
