INGREDIENTS:

***Filling***
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon curry powder
100 wonton skins
***Sweet and Sour Dip:***
1 1/2 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
1/2 cup distilled white vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons ketchup
3 tablespoons cornstarch


DIRECTIONS:

Mash cream cheese in a bowl with fork until smooth. Add egg yolks and curry powder; mix until completely lump-free; set aside. If time allows, refrigerate for 2 hours for easier handling.

Combine sweet and sour ingredients in a saucepan; cook over medium heat while stirring constantly until sauce thick- ens; set aside.

Using store-bought wonton wrappers or your own, place a teaspoon of cream cheese mixture on a wrapper. Gather up the edges; pinch to enclose. Set on cookie sheet; repeat with remainder.

Heat 4 to 5 cups oil in wok or skillet to 350 degrees F; fry 5 or 6 wontons at a time for 3 to 4 seconds or until light golden brown. They will puff up, so don't fry too many at once. Remove and drain on wire rack or paper toweling. Serve with warm dipping sauce.

I had this at a restaurant and then came looking for the recipe. I think the egg ruins it. Glad I only whipped up half a batch! When I had it in the restaurant the cream cheese gushed out a bit like with a jalapeno popper - but with this recipe the filling cooks and is more thick and less creamy. I will try it again, with out the egg. Oh yes, and I also recomend adding some crushed red peppers or something to spice up the filling a bit more.
