8 oz Ground raw chicken or pork

1/2 c Shredded carrot

1/4 c Finely chopped celery*

1 T Soy sauce

1 T Dry sherry

2 t Cornstarch

2 t Grated gingerroot

skillet cook and stir ground chicken or pork till no pink remains; drain.
Stir in carrot, celery or water chestnuts, soy sauce, sherry, cornstarch,
and gingerroot; mix well. Spoon 1 rounded teaspoon of the filling atop a

carefully bring 2 opposite corners of the square wonton wrapper up over
the filling and pinch together in the center. Carefully bring the 2
remaining opposite corners to the center and pinch together. Pinch
together edges to seal. Place wontons on a greased baking sheet. Repeat
with remaining filling and wonton wrappers. Brush wontons with melted
margarine or butter. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes or
