-------------------------BASIC MIX-------------------------
2 Eggs
3 tb Soy sauce (light

1 pk Wonton skins

in a large bowl, mix meat well with remaining BASIC
ingredients. mix until smooth.

Separate mix into four equal parts. For each part,
add one of the EXTRA condiments -- mix well.

To stuff the dumplings, put about one overflowing
teaspoon or pecan sized ball into a wonton skin. Fold
into shape. Possible shapes are purse , fish ,
chocolate kiss, nurses cap, or whatever. Parts of the
wonton skin that are sticking out may get tough, so
keep this to a minimum. Use a different shape for each
condiment so that you will know what is what.

To cook, place on top of lettuce leaf on steam rack (
the leaf helps prevent sticking). Be very careful not
to let them touch each other or else they will stick.
Steam for 20 minutes. Eat hot. Can be frozen and
reheated in microwave.
