Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 19

50 - 60 wonton wrappers ((Note 1))
200 g / 7 oz lean pork mince ((ground pork))
200 g / 7 oz peeled prawns / shrimp (, roughly chopped)
1 tbsp ginger (, finely grated (1.5" / 3cm piece))
2 shallots / green onions (, finely chopped (5 tbsp))
1 tbsp light soy sauce ((Note 2))
2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine ((Shaoxing wine) (Note 3))
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp sesame oil, toasted ((Note 4))
3 cups / 750 ml chicken broth ((Note 5))
2 garlic cloves (, smashed (6))
⅓" / 1 cm piece of ginger (, sliced (optional, but highly recommended))
1½ tbsp light soy sauce ((Note 2))
2 tsp sugar ((any))
1½ tbsp chinese cooking wine ((Note 3))
¼ - ½ tsp sesame oil
Shallots / scallions (, finely chopped)
Bok choy (, quartered, or Chinese broccoli cut into 10cm /4" lengths (optional))
40 - 50 g / 1.5 - 1.75 oz dried egg noodles per person (, (optional) (8))

Steps:

  • Place Filling ingredients in a bowl. Use a potato masher to mash until fairly smooth - about 20 mashes. Don't turn the prawn into a complete paste, small chunks are good.
  • Use My Way (better Wonton Soup experience!) or the Asian Grocery Store Way (easier to pack for freezing).
  • Lay Wontons on work surface. Use 2 teaspoons to put the Filling on the wontons. Work in batches of 5 if starting out, up to 15 or 20 if confident. Brush 2 edges with water. Fold to seal, pressing out air. Brush water on one corner and bring corners together, pressing to seal.
  • Place wrapped wontons into a container with a lid as you work (so they don't dry out).
  • To cook: bring a large pot of water to boil. Place wontons in water and cook for 4 minutes or until they float. Remove with slotted spoon straight into serving bowls. Ladle over broth.
  • To freeze: Freeze uncooked in airtight containers. Cook from frozen for 6 to 8 minutes. IMPORTANT: Do not freeze if you made this with defrosted frozen prawns. (Note 11)
  • Place Broth ingredients in a saucepan over high heat. Add white ends of scallions/shallots if leftover from Wonton filling.
  • Place lid on, bring to simmer then reduce to medium high and simmer for 5 - 10 minutes to allow the flavours to infuse. Pick garlic and ginger out before using.
  • If using vegetables, blanch in the soup broth and place in serving bowl.
  • Prepare noodles according to packet directions (if using noodles). Place in serving bowl with cooked wontons and blanched vegetables.
  • Ladle over soup. Serve!

SIMPLE WONTON SOUP



Simple Wonton Soup image

This simple wonton soup recipe is so delicious and easy to follow. The wontons can be frozen, boiled and added to stock to make wonton soup any time of day.

Provided by Sarah

Categories     Soups and Stocks

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 oz. baby bok choy or similar green vegetable
8 oz. ground pork ((225g))
2 1/2 tablespoons sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1 tablespoon soy sauce
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine
1 package wonton wrappers
6 cups chicken stock ((about 1.5 liters))
1 scallion ((chopped))

Steps:

  • Start by thoroughly washing the vegetables. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and blanch the vegetables just until wilted, about 60-90 seconds. Drain and rinse in cold water.
  • Grab a good clump of veg and carefully squeeze out as much water as you can. Very finely chop the vegetables (you can also speed up the process by throwing them in the food processor). Repeat until all the vegetables are chopped.
  • In a medium bowl, add the finely chopped vegetables, ground pork, 2 1/2 tablespoons sesame oil, pinch of white pepper, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1-2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine. Mix very thoroughly until the mixture is totally emulsified-almost like a paste.
  • Now it's time to assemble! Fill a small bowl with water. Grab a wrapper and use your finger to moisten the edges of the wrapper. Add a little over a teaspoon of filling to the middle. Fold the wrapper in half and press the two sides together so you get a firm seal.
  • Hold the bottom two corners of the little rectangle you just made (the side where the filling is) and bring the two corners together. You can use a bit of water to make sure they stick. And that's it!
  • At this point, you can cook (boil) and taste a couple of wontons and adjust the seasoning of your filling to taste--you can always add a little more Shaoxing wine, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and/or white pepper to your liking.
  • Once you're happy with the flavor of the filling, keep assembling until all the filling is gone. Place the wontons on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper, and make sure they are not touching (this will prevent sticking).
  • If you'd like to freeze your wontons right away, you can cover the wontons with plastic wrap, put the baking sheet/plate into the freezer, and transfer them to freezer bags once they're frozen. They'll keep for a couple of months in the freezer, and be ready for wonton soup whenever you want it.
  • To make the soup, heat your chicken stock to a simmer and add 2-3 teaspoons sesame oil and white pepper and salt to taste.
  • Bring a separate pot of water to a boil. Carefully add the wontons one at a time to the pot. Pick up the pot and use a swirling, twisting motion to keep the pot moving and prevent the wontons from sticking to the bottom. If they do stick, don't worry, They should come free once they're cooked. Once they're floating, boil them for another 1-2 minutes. Take care not to overcook them - mushy wontons are a sin! Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and put them in bowls.
  • Pour the soup over the wontons and garnish with scallions. Serve!

WONTON SOUP



Wonton Soup image

Note: If you plan on saving any of this soup for leftovers, you might consider cooking the wontons in a separate pot of boiling water before adding them to the broth for serving. Because the wontons themselves are coated with cornstarch, they will make the soup cloudy, thick, and starchy, if allowed to sit in the soup for any length of time. You won't have this problem, however, if you choose to serve the soup immediately.

Time 1h30m

Yield about 2 quarts, 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions, plus 3 tablespoons finely chopped
10 cups canned low sodium chicken broth
1/2 pound ground pork
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
About 30 wonton wrappers, thawed if frozen
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced bok choy
1/2 cup sliced shiitake mushroom caps
1/4 cup sliced bamboo shoots

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan or soup pot heat the oil over medium high heat until hot. Add 1 tablespoon of the garlic and 1 tablespoon of the ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the 1/4 cup of sliced scallions and the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low so that the broth just simmers. Allow broth to simmer for at least 20 to 30 minutes while the wontons are being assembled.
  • In a small mixing bowl combine the remaining teaspoon of minced garlic, remaining tablespoon of chopped ginger, 3 tablespoons of finely chopped scallions, the pork, egg yolk, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil and crushed red pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Working on a flat work surface, lay out a few of the wontons. (Keep remaining wonton wrappers covered with plastic wrap.) Fill a small bowl partially with cool water and set aside. Using a teaspoon measure, place a heaping teaspoonful of the meat filling in the center of each wonton. Using your fingers, lightly wet the edges of the wonton. Bring 2 opposite corners of the wonton together to form a triangle and enclose the filling, pressing edges firmly around the mound of filling to eliminate any air pockets and seal. Moisten opposite corners of the long side. Curl moistened corners toward each other, overlapping one on top of the other, and press the edges together to seal. You should now have a rounded stuffed wonton with a triangle poking up at the top. Assemble the remaining wontons in the same manner. When the wontons are all assembled, set aside.
  • Add the sliced bok choy, mushrooms, and bamboo shoots to the broth and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Using your hands or a slotted spoon, gently add the prepared wontons to the simmering broth. Increase the heat slightly so that the broth returns to a gentle simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally (very gently), until the wontons float and the pork filling is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
