Method
Sauce:
Combine sugar, water, vinegar, tomato paste and tomato sauce
in a saucepan and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves.
With the extra water add the cornflour and make a smooth paste
and add to saucepan. Stir continually over medium heat until
sauce thickens then reduce heat and simmer for 1 minute.
Cut the wonton wrappers using an 8cm round cutter and stack
wonton wrappers on top of each other and that way you can
cut a lot in one go. With boiling water cover the mushrooms
and let stand for 30 minutes then drain and chop the mushrooms
finely. Mix together the mushrooms, pork, shelled and finely
cut prawns, finely chopped bamboo shoots, ginger, crushed
garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce and sherry and combine well.
Place small amounts of mixture into the centre of each circle
and brush the edges of wrappers with water and fold in half
and then pinch the edges together firmly. Drop the Gow Gees
into deep hot oil and fry till golden brown then remove and
drain on absorbent paper. Serve the Gow Gees with sauce for
dipping.
Enjoy your freshly made Gow
Gees!
