Fill the Wontons
Take a wonton wrapper and place a small spoonful (about 1 teaspoon) of the filling in the center. Moisten the edges with water, fold the wrapper in half to create a triangle, and press to seal. You can also bring the two corners of the triangle together to form a pouch, sealing the edges with water.
