    Hmmm... so it's sort of like trying to tie together raviolli and won tons, samosas and turnovers, or naan and tortillas. You really can't, it was just a good idea and different cultures came up with it on their own.

    Now I'm hungry!

    Cheers

    I don't know, I was watching an Italian cooking show this weekend, and they were making chocolate raviolli - using won ton skins.

    I've made something kind of like that before.

    Ultra-dark chocolate, a bit of cream cheese, and chunks of sauteed banana, folded into won ton skins and deep fried, served with a dulce de leche drizzle over the top.

    That'd be one of the reasons I got up to a 44" waist for a while, there...
