- Place the long chives in a shallow dish, pour boiling hot water from the kettle over the chives to wilt them, immediately drain the hot liquid off and refresh the chives under cold running water or dunk them in ice water. Drain the chives on kitchen paper. shopping list
- Lightly dust a clean work surface with corn flour, lay the wonton wrappers out and fill each with a teaspoon full of the chicken mix.

Use a wilted chive to tie around the wonton with a double knot, trim with kitchen scissors to shorten the chives. This might be fiddly but it looks fantastic. shopping list

How to make it
- Avocado and Lime Dip
- 1 large ripe avocado
- 1 lime, zest and juice
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 50g crème fraîche
- Peel the avocado and remove the seed. Place the avocado in a food processor add the lime juice, crème fraîche, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth, fold in the lime zest and serve with the wontons.
- If you are making the avocado dip to serve later place a piece of cling film directly on to the surface of the avocado to lock out air and prevent it from oxidising. It will stay bright green for up to one day in the fridge.

- Food Fanatics Tips
- If you made these Green Chilli Chicken Wontons for the freezer, freeze them the same day. Always cook them from frozen, ensure they are cooked well and hot all the way through. Break one open and test that they are piping hot in the middle before you serve them.
- If you are planning for a party, you can deep-fry the wontons earlier the day and then reheat them in the oven at 180°C for 10 – 15 minutes.
