Vegan Wontons

First, make the wrappers:

2 cups plain flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup warm water
Cornflower
 
In a mixing bowl stir together the flour and salt. Slowly stir in the warm water to make a stiff dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10-15 minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover and let rest for 20 minutes.Divide dough into fourths. Roll each fourth into a 12 inch square. Keep remaining dough covered. Ccut the dough into 3 inch squares. To prevent the squares from sticking together, sprinkle with a little cornstarch; stack and refrigerate the skins in a plastic bag.

Then make some sort of filling:

Red pepper and sweet potato?
Or some garlicky stuff?  With some nuts or something?  Whatever, really.

Then cook 'em:


Divide the filling – about 1 tsp per wrapper – into the wrappers.
Fold over and press together and place on a lightly greased baking tray.
Bake at 150 ºC for 10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
