Need a recipe for fried shrimp wontons with herbs served with a plum sauce?

Question

I had this appetizer at an thai-french fusion restaurant. It was fantastic! Thank you all for your help. And I also think the plum sauce may have had ginger in it? And it was not thick or syrupy. It was like the consistency of a vinaigrette. The sauce was light in color as well. Here is the website of the restaurant http://www.siris-nj.com/flash.htm.

Answer 1

CHA PAO TSU

1/2 cup plum sauce
2 dried chinese mushrooms
1/2 lb ground chuck
oil for deep-frying
1/4 lb uncooked shrimp, minced
1/4 cup minced water chestnuts
3 scallions, minced
2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon dry sherry
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon sesame seed oil
2 teaspoons cornstarch; dissolved in...
1/4 cup cold water
30 wonton wrappers, 3" by 3"

Prepare Plum Sauce.
Soak mushrooms in hot water 20 minutes, then discard stems and mince caps.

Combine mushrooms, beef, shrimp, water chestnuts, scallions, soy sauce, dry sherry salt, sugar, sesame seed oil and dissolved cornstarch in mixing bowl and mix well.

Cover wonton wrappers with damp cloth to keep moist. Place 1 tsp. filling in center of each wrapper. Fold edges together to form a pouch and seal by giving a slight pinch at top. Heat 4" oil to 375°F in wok or deep-fryer. Deep fry meat savories over high heat until golden brown. Drain. Serve with hot Plum Sauce.
