Ingredients
Scale
- 50–60 wonton wrappers
- 200 g ground pork
- 200 g raw shrimp (chopped)
- 1 tbsp grated ginger
- 2 green onions (chopped)
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
- Optional: Bok choy or noodles for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the filling by mixing ground pork, chopped shrimp, ginger, green onions, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a mixing bowl. Mash until well combined but retain some texture.
- Lay out the wonton wrappers and place about 1 teaspoon of filling on each wrapper. Brush two edges with water, fold to seal while pressing out air, and form desired shapes.
- Bring a pot of water to boil. Cook wontons for approximately 4 minutes until they float; remove with a slotted spoon.
- For the broth, combine broth ingredients in a saucepan and simmer for 5-10 minutes; adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve hot by adding cooked noodles to bowls first (if desired), topping with wontons, and ladling over the broth.
