Combine mangoes, onion, and 1/3 cup cilantro in small bowl. (Sauce and salsa can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.)

Place wonton wrapper on work surface. Place 1 basil leaf in center of each wrapper. Place 1 shrimp atop each basil leaf, allowing tail to extend beyond wrapper. Brush top edge of wonton with water and roll up from bottom, enclosing shrimp and pressing long edge to adhere.
Pour oil to depth of 3 inches in heavy large pot. Heat oil to 350°F. Fry wontons in small batches until cooked through, about 2 minutes per batch. Using slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain.
Spoon salsa onto center of each plate. Arrange 4 wontons around salsa on each plate. Spoon sauce over wontons. |
