How To Make quail egg wontons

• Step 1
  This is a make what you want recipe. Figure 5 wontons per skewer, and figure 1-2 skewers per serving as an appetizer.
• 
  Step 2
  Place a wonton wrapper on your work surface with a corner pointed towards you. Dip your finger in a small bowl of water and wet all 4 edges of the wrapper, place a quail egg on the wrapper.
• 
  Step 3
  Fold the corner closest to you over the egg away from you, then roll the egg away from you until you see the corners overlapped.
• 
  Step 4
  Take the left and right corners and fold them one at a time over the egg as well, so they overlap. Place on a skewer, running the skewer through the corners overlapped, as seen in this photo. I folded the left corner first, then right corner, gives a nice uniform appearance.
• Step 5
  Repeat with the remaining eggs and wrappers. Using as many skewers, eggs, and wrappers as desired.
• 
  Step 6
  Heat a pan with about 1/2 inch of lard or oil (I used homemade lard for this), when hot, add a few skewers at a time, fry to golden brown.
• 
  Step 7
  Turn and fry the other side to golden brown. Frying both sides, called a shallow deep fry, takes just 10-20 seconds per side.
• 
  Step 8
  Serve with a dipping sauce of your choice.
