really delicious, like many others I cut out the lemon grass, used less ginger and used 1.5 green chile peppers, one bunch of cilantro and they were great. I made about 35-40 of them because those are all the wrappers i had and i kept the rest of the filling for lettuce wraps (also delicious (: ) great recipe! i think it would have been good as the original, but with my modifications it was very good (:

alittle to much lemon grass and ginger for me. However, i served them at a party, and a lot of people liked them.

Just made these for a party I'm having this weekend. I doubled the recipe and still only used one large bunch of cilantro. I was frying just a few to make sure they were party worthy. When I tasted them I thought I really couldn' t wait to taste them with the sweet and sour sauce but I didn't have any so I just spread on a little bit of pineapple preserves and it was awesome. Then I came up with the idea to add pineapple preserves to the mixture before frying. It made them awesome and helped with the slightly overpowering ginger flavor. If you like your food a little sweet they are awesome that way. That being said, they are still awesome the original way also.

These are great and easy to make. I added carrots in mine. Some other suggestions are bean sprouts and bok choy. I bought already made wonton wrappers to save some time. I also used chicken breast instead of thighs and steamed mine to keep it on the healthy side.

This is amazingly delicious. Have a friend help you assemble. It makes it much more fun. My whole family enjoyed making and eating these.

These were good. Like any wonton recipe (and I've made a few now), it is very time consuming (unless you have some little helpers, but I never do). I had to eat them plain because I have absolutely no dipping sauces on hand, but they were still good. I made a few changes to this as well. I omitted the lemon grass and sesame oil (I had none), used two serrano peppers in place of 1 red chile, and used dried ginger instead of fresh. Thanks for the recipe.

I didn't really care for these. The texture was too mushy for the filling and too much cilantro...and I love cilantro. I think it may be better with diced ingredients and maybe breast meat would have made a difference.
