Kam Lu Wantan | Peruvian/Chinese Recipe Step by Step

Hello Dear friends, today I am sharing with you a Chinese/Peruvian dish that is called Ka lum Wantan , when I think about this recipe, reminds me when back on the day I use to visit the "Chifas" (a type of Peruvian/Chinese restaurant ) with my family, my little brother always asked for this dish he did not like Chinese food except for this dish and since in Peru most of the restaurants serve a good amount of food, we usually ordered 1 dish for two, so I always ended eating a bit of his "Kam Lu Wantan" that is how I ended liking this dish and now when I go to a Chinese restaurant I order this dish. for the ones that never heard about the dish, it is a Vegetable Stir-fry served along wontons and a sweet sauce, if you like to sweet & Salty flavors along with vegetables this recipe might be for you.

Links for the ingredients / tools I use on this recipe will be at the bottom of the post
