2 ½ TBSP shoyu or tamari

2 TBSP kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)

1⁄4 tsp chilli oil dash of sesame oil

Sauce Method

To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients. Set aside.

Wonton Method

Put the tofu in a large bowl and mash using a fork.

Add the remaining ingredients, except the wonton wrappers, and mix well.

Place 1 tsp filling in the centre of each wonton wrapper and fold the wrapper over the filling to form a rectangle, pressing on all sides to seal and make sure there are no air bubbles.

Hold the parcel with the folded edge facing down and bring together the bottom edges, then pinch together to seal.

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil.

Add the wontons gently and cook for 2–3 minutes.

Remove with a slotted spoon and drain in a colander.

Place the wontons on a platter and drizzle with the sauce.

Eat immediately.

The dish can be made ahead of time by freezing the wontons (layering them between baking paper) and preparing the sauce early. If frozen, cooking time for the wontons will be 4–5 minutes.
