Ingredients
For Wontons
▢8 ounces ground pork
▢2 green onions (finely chopped)
▢1 teaspoon soy sauce
▢1 teaspoon oyster sauce
▢½ teaspoon sesame oil
▢¼ teaspoon white pepper
▢1 package wonton wrappers
For Soup
▢8 cups chicken broth (low sodium)
▢1 inch fresh ginger piece (sliced)
▢2 green onions (cut into 2-inch pieces)
▢2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)
▢1 tablespoon sesame oil
▢salt (to taste)
In a bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped green onions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and white pepper. Mix until well combined.
Place a small amount of the pork mixture in the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold it in half to form a triangle, and press the edges to seal. If you like, you can bring the two bottom corners of the triangle together, overlapping slightly, and press to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
In a large pot, bring the chicken broth, sliced ginger, and green onions to a boil. Gently add the wontons to the pot and cook for about 5 minutes, until they're cooked through and float to the surface.
Remove the ginger and green onions. Season the soup with the soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt to taste.
Ladle the soup and wontons into bowls. Top with additional chopped green onions and cilantro, if desired.
Notes
Wrapper Wetting: When assembling the wontons, don’t over wet the wrappers; a slight dampness is enough to seal them.
Pork Substitution: Ground chicken or turkey can be used as a substitute for ground pork if desired.
Vegetarian Option: For a vegetarian version, consider using finely chopped mushrooms or tofu as the filling instead of pork.
Broth Flavor: Feel free to adjust the soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt in the broth to suit your taste preference.
Extra Flavor: Add some minced garlic or a dash of white pepper to the broth for an extra kick of flavor.
Freshness Matters: Utilize fresh green onions and ginger for the most flavor-packed broth.
