- 5 ounces scallops
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 10 ounces lobster meat, chopped, or crab meat
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons minced onion
- 1 green onion, finely chopped
- 1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
- 1 1/2 tablespoons dry white wine
- 1 1/2 tablespoons brandy
- 28 won-ton squares
- 18 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg mixed with 1 teaspoon water
- Lemon-grass butter sauce (recipe follows)
- Puree the scallops, and set aside.
- In a teaspoon of oil, saute the lobster meat or crab meat with garlic, onion, green onion and cilantro until just hot.
- Add white wine and brandy, and stir.
- Remove from heat.
- Add the scallop puree, and mix well to bind together the filling ingredients.
- Season with salt.
- Divide the filling into 14 equal portions, and place one portion in the center of a won-ton skin.
- Repeat until all the filling is used.
- Brush the edges of the won ton with egg wash, and place the remaining won tons on top of those with the filling, pressing the sides down firmly to seal.
- At this point, the won tons may be covered and refrigerated.
- To serve, bring water to boil in large pot, add salt and 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and gently add the won ton; boil for 2 minutes.
- Drain and serve with lemon-grass butter sauce.
