Spinach Won Tons

Found this in an old scrapbook, saved for trying one of these days. I like the concept of an unusual filling in a conventional package. these wontons can be used in a comporting soup, fried as and appetizer or steamed for dim sum.

Steps

Wash the spinach thoroughly and trim any tough stems or bad spots on the leaves.
Drain the spinach and pat dry with a paper towel.
Coarsely chop the spinach.
Assemble all of your prepared ingredients beforehand as the cooking is quick.
Place a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
When the pan or wok gets smoking hot , add the peanut oil with the garlic and onion.
Stir fry the onion and garlic for 30 seconds , the add the spinach and water chestnuts.
Continue to cook an additional 3 minutes , allowing the water from the spinach to cook off.
Transfer the vegetables from the wok or pan to a bowl.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Allow the spinach to cool for 5 minutes.
To form the wontons , pull one wonton from the package an moisten the edges with water.
Place a scant teaspoon of the spinach mixture in the center of the wonton.
Fold the wonton over into a triangle.
Now , fold the long corners together and give them a wee pinch to hold together.
Cover the comp.
