Ingredients

Scale

  • For the Wontons:

    • 1/2 lb ground pork
    • 1/4 cup finely chopped shrimp (optional)
    • 1 tbsp soy sauce
    • 1 tsp sesame oil
    • 1 tsp grated ginger
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 1/4 tsp white pepper
    • 1 green onion, finely chopped
    • 20-25 wonton wrappers

  • For the Broth:

    • 4 cups chicken broth
    • 1 cup water
    • 1 tbsp soy sauce
    • 1/2 tsp sesame oil
    • 1/2 tsp grated ginger
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 2 green onions, sliced
    • 1/2 cup bok choy or spinach (optional)

Instructions

  • Make the Wontons: In a bowl, mix ground pork, shrimp (if using), soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, salt, pepper, and green onions.
  • Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten edges with water, fold into a triangle, and seal. Bring the two corners together and press to seal. Repeat for all wrappers.
  • Prepare the Broth: In a pot, heat chicken broth, water, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Cook the Wontons: Bring a separate pot of water to a boil. Cook wontons in batches for 3-5 minutes until they float. Remove with a slotted spoon.
  • Assemble the Soup: Add cooked wontons to the broth, along with bok choy or spinach if using. Simmer for another 2 minutes.
  • Garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a dash of white pepper or chili oil.
  • Store uncooked wontons in the freezer for up to a month.
