Mozzarella and mango chutney wonton parcels

If you fancy a little light cooking, these wonton wrapper parcels are so worth the effort – hot crispy parcels of tangy cheese. Delicious.

Wonton Wrapper Parcels (serves 4)

12 – 16 wonton wrappers (I’m guestimating 3 or 4 per person)

1 large ball of mozzarella cheese

3 – 4 tbsp mango chutney

1 lime

1 egg

Vegetable oil

• Crack the egg in a bowl and whisk
• Lay a wonton wrapper on a flat surface and use a circular cookie cutter (or a glass) to cut into a disk
• Dab about 1/2 tsp of mango chutney in the middle of the disk
• Top with a 1cm-ish cube of mozzarella
• Grate over a few fronds of lime zest
• Use your finger or a pastry brush to dab egg around the circumference of the disk.
• Fold the disk in half to make a ravioli, and press down the edges pushing out the air and sealing the parcel shut
• Repeat until you’ve made all the parcels
• Heat 2 tbsp of vegetable oil in a frying pan and cook the parcels for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on each side until crisp and golden.
• Season with salt and pepper and serve
