Fried wontons with orange-ginger filling

Ingredients:

• 12 pieces of wonton dough
• 1 teaspoon orange confiture
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• 55 g cream cheese, softened
• 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
• 0.5 tsp salt
• Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
• Powdered sugar for sprinkling

Preparation:

1. In a medium, heavy-bottomed, straight-sided frying pan, add enough oil to reach at least 2.5 cm up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat.
2. In a small bowl, combine the orange marmalade, ginger, cream cheese, cinnamon, and salt. Spoon 1 heaping teaspoon of filling onto each wonton and brush the edges of the dough with a little water. Fold in half diagonally and pinch the edges of the dough to form triangles. Assemble all the wontons before frying.
3. Working in batches, fry the wontons, 3-4 at a time, until golden brown, 3-4 minutes, turning once. Transfer the wontons to paper towels to drain any excess oil. Let cool for a few minutes, as the filling will be very hot. Dust lightly with powdered sugar and serve.
