Salmon Won Ton Cups
Sep 5th, 2010
Ingredients
- 24 square won ton or shumai (dumpling) wrappers
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 teaspoons white sesame seeds
- 4 ounces hot-smoked salmon, flaked into small pieces
- 1/2 cup finely sliced green onions, including tops
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 small avocado, finely diced
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Lay 12 won ton wrappers flat and, using about half the butter, brush both sides. Press into mini muffin cups (2 tbsp. size), pleating each to form a small cup. Sprinkle wrappers with half the sesame seeds. Bake until golden brown (watching carefully; they can burn easily), 7 to 9 minutes. Loosen from cups with a small spatula and put on a cooling rack. Repeat with remaining 12 won ton wrappers, butter, and sesame seeds.
2. In a small bowl, combine salmon, green onions, cilantro, lime juice, ginger, and salt; mix well. Add avocado (see Notes) and toss very gently until well combined. Put a generous spoonful in each won ton cup. Serve immediately.
Makes 24 won ton cups; 8 servings
