A wonton is a type of dumpling commonly found in a number of Chinese cuisines.are very popular as snack or appetizer. They come in small parcels and are available in many forms; deep-fried, boiled, steamed, or in soup.It is available from the corner of the small street to big restaurants in China and now in India and across the world.I like it as we can add any stuffing to it.It can be savory or sweet.I included beans and fruits and veggies to it and loved it"s flavor very much ,so wanted to share with you all.I think you guys will be going to kill me for adding any thing and everything in any dish.....:D:D
