3 parsnips
1/4-1/2″ of grated ginger
1 scallion
soy sauce to taste
1/2 package of wonton wrappers
-Peel the parsnips and cut them into approximately 1/4″ chunks. Steam or cook in the microwave.
-Mash the cooked parsnips with the grated fresh ginger, scallions, and soy sauce
-Fold a small dollop of the filling into wonton wrappers (most of the packages have folding instructions on the back)
-FRY!
This was my contribution to the Lunar New Year potluck my parents hosted over the weekend. I figured with all the pork products floating around I should make something vegetarian (and my dad considerately fried them before frying the pork wontons I also made).
Food, friends, festive music, and fire. What more could you ask of a party?
But now the semester has started, Ithaca “spring” semester doldrums are on their way, and it’s back to work.
