Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground pork
  • ½ lb raw shrimp, deveined and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 package wonton wrappers
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups baby bok choy, halved
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

Method
 

  1. Combine ground pork, chopped shrimp, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, and green onions in a bowl. Mix until well combined.
  2. Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each wonton wrapper. Wet the edges with water, fold into a triangle, and press to seal. Bring the two bottom corners together and press to form the classic wonton shape.
  3. Bring chicken broth to a boil in a large pot. Add rice vinegar, salt, and white pepper.
  4. Drop wontons into the simmering broth and cook for 5-6 minutes until they float and the filling is cooked through.
  5. Add bok choy to the pot and cook for 2 minutes until tender.
  6. Ladle soup and wontons into bowls. Top with sliced green onions and a drizzle of chili oil if desired.
