Ingredients

• 200g (3/4 cup) creme fraiche or sour cream


• 1/2 teaspoon wasabi paste


• 750ml (3 cups) vegetable oil, to deep-fry


• 8 wonton wrappers


• 200g smoked ocean trout slices


• 1/2 Lebanese cucumber, thinly sliced lengthways

• 1/2 nori sheet, cut into thin strips

Method

  Step 2
  
  
  
  
  Place the oil in a large deep-frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Heat to 180°C (when the oil is ready a cube of bread will turn golden brown in 15 seconds). Add the wonton wrappers, 1 or 2 at a time, and cook, turning once, for 15 seconds or until light golden brown. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. Set aside to cool completely.

  Step 3
  
  
  
  
  Divide the wonton crisps among serving plates. Top with the wasabi mixture, smoked ocean trout, cucumber, shallot, ginger and nori. Serve immediately.
