Tung Tong are a tasty Thai appetizer that are usually served with a sweet chilli sauce or plum sauce. These are also called Money Bags due to their appearance. It's crispy and deep-fried pastry purses filled with a mixture of minced chicken, minced prawn and minced mushroom. I always buy my pastry sheets from Asian stores.
