Yield 2 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 oz stock/broth/non-water base
4 oz shrimp, finely chopped
4 oz ground pork
1 small crown broccoli, separated
3 med carrots, peeled, julienned
2 scallions, chopped, separated
2 T chopped cilantro
1 thumb ginger, grated
2 cloves garlic, grated
1/4 t chili flakes (or more to taste)
t soy sauce
1 package wonton wrappers
1 T olive oil
Additional garnishes: sesame oil, cilantro leaves, beaten egg (a la egg drop soup)

Steps:

  • 1. Heat liquid to simmer. Make small bowl of cold water for folding wontons. 2. For filling: In bowl of food processor, place chopped shrimp, ground pork, scallion greens, cilantro, garlic, ginger, olive oil and chili flakes. Salt and pepper to taste. Process until like a coarse paste. 3. Make wontons: Place 1 scant teaspoon in center of wonton wrapper. Wet edges. Fold into triangles, flowers, envelopes, nuns hats, whatever. Seal well, removing all air. 4. Bring liquid to boil. Drop in carrots and broccoli and some wontons but do not over crowd. May need to work in batches. Boil 3 minutes. Remove veggies and wontons with mesh ladle and add to serving bowls. Cook remaining wontons and add to bowls. (Any additional wontons made can be wrapped in damp towel and placed in zip loc for a day). While soup is still simmering/boiling, stir in beaten egg if using. Pour soup into bowls (this will reheat wontons and veggies), sprinkle with scallion greens and serve with additional garnishes.
