Lusog Notes
This dish is high in protein that is needed for growth, development and repair of body tissues. It is also high in vitamin A that helps prevent infections by keeping the immune system healthy.
Chef`s Tip
While working on the wonton cups, cover the wonton sheets with a damp towel to keep them moist. The wonton wrappers easily dry out and will turn brittle and difficult to work with.
