Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Wontons:
    • 1 pound ground pork
    • 8 ounces shrimp, peeled and chopped
    • 2 green onions, finely chopped
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
    • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
    • 1 package wonton wrappers
  • For the Broth:
    • 6 cups chicken or vegetable broth
    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
    • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
    • 2 cups bok choy or spinach, chopped
    • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix ground pork, chopped shrimp, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil until well combined.
  • Assemble the Wontons: Place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface, add 1 teaspoon of filling in the center, moisten edges with water, fold, and seal tightly. Repeat until all filling is used.
  • Make the Broth: In a large pot, heat the broth over medium heat. Add soy sauce and sliced mushrooms, simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Cook the Wontons: Gently add the wontons to the simmering broth. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until they float and are cooked through.
  • Add Greens: Stir in bok choy or spinach and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted.
  • Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy!

Notes

For added flavor, consider adding a splash of rice wine to the broth. Leftover wontons can be frozen for later use, and the soup can be reheated gently on the stove.
