Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 200 grams Ground pork
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger (grated)
- 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 6 cups Chicken stock
- 2 cups Bok choy (sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons White pepper
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Water
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the ground pork, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, 1 chopped green onion, salt, white pepper, and cornstarch mixed with water. Mix until well combined.
Place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Add approximately 1 teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of the wrapper. Lightly wet the edges of the wrapper with water using your finger, then fold it diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges to seal.
Bring the two opposite corners of the triangle together, overlapping slightly, and press to seal. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
In a large pot, bring the chicken stock to a gentle boil. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and adjust salt to taste.
Carefully drop the wontons into the soup, one at a time, to prevent them from sticking together. Let them cook for 5-7 minutes or until they float to the surface.
Add the sliced bok choy and allow it to cook for 2-3 more minutes until tender.
Serve the wonton soup hot, garnished with the remaining chopped green onion.
