Step 1
Chop shrimp roughly. Mix shrimp and crumbled tofu in a bowl.
Step 2
Place 1 tbsp shrimp-tofu mixture in center of each wonton wrapper.
Step 3
Wet edges with water. Fold into triangle, then bring corners together to seal.
Step 4
Whisk peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, and 3 tbsp warm water until pourable sauce forms.
Step 5
Heat oil to 350°F in a heavy pot. Test with a piece of wrapper—it should sizzle immediately.
Step 6
Fry dumplings in batches 2–3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Don't crowd the pot.
Step 7
Lift with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Step 8
Arrange batagor on a serving plate. Drizzle peanut sauce over or serve on the side.
