Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Wonton wrappers
- 1 cup Shiitake mushrooms
- 1 cup Firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons Green onions
- 0.5 cup Carrot
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Ginger
- 6 cups Vegetable broth
- 2 cups Bok choy
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Finely chop the shiitake mushrooms, pressing them gently with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Crumble the tofu using a fork or your hands until it resembles fine crumbs.
Grate the carrot and finely slice the green onions.
Mince the garlic cloves and ginger.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped mushrooms, crumbled tofu, grated carrot, sliced green onions, mined garlic and ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well to create the wonton filling.
Lay a wonton wrapper on a flat surface and add about 1 teaspoon of the filling into the center of the wrapper.
Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a little water and fold it in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal.
Bring the two points of the triangle together, using a little water to pinch them together and form a wonton shape. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
In a large pot, bring the vegetable broth to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Add the wontons carefully into the broth, ensuring they do not stick to the bottom of the pot.
Cook the wontons for 5 to 7 minutes, or until they are tender and translucent.
Add the bok choy to the broth and cook for an additional 2 minutes until just wilted.
Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste.
Ladle the wontons and soup into bowls and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious Vegetarian Boiled Wonton Soup!
