Categories: Chinese, Appetizer, D/g
     Yield: 1 servings

 1 3/4 lb Ground meat (beef , pork or
          -mix of two)

MMMMM-------------------------BASIC MIX------------------------------
     2    Eggs
     3 tb Soy sauce (light
          -preferred)
     3 tb Sherry
     1 ts Grated fresh ginger
   1/2 ts White pepper
     2 tb Sesame oil
     3    Chopped little green
          -onions
     2 tb Corn starch
     4 tb Chopped water chestnut
     3    Clove garlic, minced

MMMMM----------------------EXTRA CONDIMENTS---------------------------
 1 1/2 ts Red chili sauce with
          -garlic
     2 ts Spicy brown bean sauce
     3 ts Hosin sauce
     1 ts Grated orange peel

MMMMM--------------------------WRAPPER-------------------------------
     1 pk Wonton skins

 In a large bowl, mix meat well with remaining BASIC ingredients. mix
 until smooth.

 Separate mix into four equal parts.  For each part, add one of the
 EXTRA condiments -- mix well.

 To stuff the dumplings, put about one overflowing teaspoon or pecan
 sized ball into a wonton skin.  Fold into shape.  Possible shapes are
 purse , fish , chocolate kiss, nurses cap, or whatever.  Parts of the
 wonton skin that are sticking out may get tough, so keep this to a
 minimum.  Use a different shape for each condiment so that you will
 know what is what.

 To cook, place on top of lettuce leaf on steam rack ( the leaf helps
 prevent sticking).  Be very careful not to let them touch each other
 or else they will stick.  Steam for 20 minutes.  Eat while still hot.

 Can be frozen and reheated in microwave.
