Spam Crispy Gau Gee

Serve crispy fried Gau Gee (won tons) as an appetizer, or along side your entrees and/or noodle dishes. Also served boiled in hot soups.
Traditionally folded in half and edges sealed, feel free to change up the style in which you wrap the dumplings. Fold in half and crimp the edges, or fold in triangles.
