Fill Wontons
Take a wonton wrapper and place a small spoonful of the filling in the center. Moisten the edges with water, fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, and press the edges tightly to seal. Optionally, fold the two corners of the triangle towards the center to create a more traditional wonton shape. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
