Ingredients:
- Wontons:
- 1/2 pound ground pork
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 package wonton wrappers
- Broth:
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, sliced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 cup baby bok choy, chopped
- 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 green onions, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Prepare the Wontons:
- In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and beaten egg. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the pork filling onto the center of the wrapper. Moisten the edges with water, fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, and press the edges to seal. Bring the two opposite corners of the triangle together and press to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Prepare the Broth:
- In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the minced garlic, sliced ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Reduce the heat and let the broth simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Cook the Wontons:
- Carefully add the prepared wontons to the simmering broth. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the wontons float to the surface and the filling is cooked through.
- Add the Vegetables:
- Add the chopped baby bok choy and sliced mushrooms to the pot. Simmer for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Serve:
- Ladle the soup into bowls, ensuring each bowl gets a generous amount of wontons and vegetables. Garnish with chopped green onions and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Enjoy the warm and comforting Wonton Soup, perfect for any occasion!
