Hey, everyone! Today I'm going to share with you one of my favorite dishes: wonton soup. Wonton soup is a classic Chinese dish that consists of delicious dumplings filled with meat or shrimp, cooked in a savory broth. It's perfect for a cold day, or anytime you need some comfort food. Here's how to make it at home.
Wonton Soup Recipe
Ingredients:
For the wontons:
- 1/4 pound ground pork
- 2 ounces peeled shrimp, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 24 wonton wrappers
- For the soup:
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 2 cups water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- A few drops of sesame oil
- Chopped green onion for garnish
Directions:
- To make the wontons, combine the pork, shrimp, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, pepper, green onion and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix well until the filling is sticky and smooth.
- To wrap the wontons, place a wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Spoon about a teaspoon of filling in the center of the wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper in half to form a triangle, sealing the edges. Bring the two corners of the triangle together and press to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- To make the soup, bring the chicken stock, water, salt, sugar and sesame oil to a boil in a large pot. Add the wontons and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are cooked through.
- To serve, ladle the soup and wontons into bowls and garnish with green onion. Enjoy!
