In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken or turkey, crumbled tofu, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, half of the green onions, and the beaten egg. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Lay out a wonton wrapper. Place a heaping teaspoon of the filling mixture in the center. Wet the edges of the wrapper with water and fold to seal, ensuring no air bubbles are trapped. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer. Add salt and white pepper to season.
Carefully add the filled wontons to the simmering broth. Cook for approximately 5-7 minutes or until the wontons float to the top and are fully cooked.
Add the spinach or bok choy and julienned carrot to the broth. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Stir this into the pot to slightly thicken the broth.
Adjust the seasoning to taste with extra soy sauce if needed.
Ladle the pangsit kuah into serving bowls and garnish with the remaining green onions. Serve hot and enjoy.
