We don't have an Asian market and none, Walmart, included of our grocery stores has wonton wrappers, I can get rice paper (spring roll wrappers) like crazy. Since we don't have a source for wonton wrappers I have been using this simple recipe for making them.

1 egg

1/3 cup water

2 cups flour

1/2 tsp. salt
  1. In a medium bowl, beat the egg. Mix in the water.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center of the mixture and slowly pour in the egg and water. Mix well. If the mixture is too dry, increase the amount of water one teaspoon at a time until a pliable dough has formed.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough until elastic. Cut dough into two separate balls. Cover the balls with a damp cloth for a minimum of 10 minutes.
  4. Cut each ball into four equal pieces. Roll the pieces into 10 1/2 by 10 1/2 inch squares. Cut each into nine 3 1/2 by 3 1/2 inch squares.
These can be fried or boiled to finish. I will be making Mi hoanh thanh (Vietnamese Wonton soup) tonight and will post up the wonton making in a thread for that soup.
 
Tried the WallMart Egg Roll Wrappers 

We didn't want to say these were good unless we tried them,so I took out a package of sausage thawed it out


Sausage


one sheet of wrapper cut in half,these are a little thicker then the one's we use




Fry till they are browned on bottom and turn over


nice and crispy


Guess the verdict is they are good


Thanks for looking again

Update Wallmart in Ga. has the wrappers,Publix also has the wrappers.

Publix we did not try but they should be the same,my son uses them.He was living in Fla. for years.

Publix

ok then... Since I'm not one to take pictures... I will take the wrath...

So I found the egg roll wrappers at Publix and finally made these... I decided to put fresh garlic in the mix as well.... otherwise followed the recipe as stated ... They are pretty darn good as is.. but ... I feel they could be a little better... Think they need more spices of some sort... The wife wants to go traditional and add cabbage.... Thinking maybe some kind of dipping sauce as well.... We will make them again with a little extras added....

JckDanls I am glad you were able to try them.We make them like that because most of our parties have little kids.dipping sauce we use a chilli sauce,sweet and sour sauce.The meat should be sauteed a little if cooking with cabbage,keeps from having raw meat in the center.

Looks great! Going to have to try this! Would also be good with a dipping sauce!
We use a sweet and sour sauce,you can use that duck sauce.

Thanks they are addictive once you start eating them.

Anotheer good sauce to make that goes well is a rasberry habenerro bbq. Generally has small kick to it, go great with smoked pork/chicken.
