Wonton Tourtière Tartlets

Here’s a Canadian favourite traditionally served during the holidays made into tartlets with a slight twist. You can make the tourtière mixture up to one day ahead and just warm through in the microwave, then scoop into the wonton tartlets to serve. Serve on a platter and garnish with fresh Ontario parsley.

Instructions

Press wonton wrappers into greased mini muffin tins. Bake in 350°F (180°C) oven until golden brown and crisp, about 13 minutes. Transfer to rack to cool. (Make-ahead: Store cooled wontons in airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.)

In saucepan of boiling salted water, cook potatoes until very tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash. Set aside.

In large skillet, sauté pork and veal over medium-high heat until no longer pink, about 8 minutes. Drain fat. Add mushrooms, garlic, onions, bay leaf, broth, sage, salt, pepper, allspice, thyme and cloves; bring to boil. Reduce heat and cook, stirring, until no liquid remains, about 15 minutes. Discard bay leaf and cloves. Stir in potatoes and parsley. Spoon heaping tablespoon (15 mL) into each wonton cup.
