Ingredients

• 250 g ground pork
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 2 tbsp finely chopped green onions
• 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
• 30 wonton wrappers
• 6 cups chicken broth
• 2 cups bok choy
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms
• 2 cloves minced garlic
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp white pepper
• 2 tbsp chopped cilantro

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the ground pork, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, sesame oil, green onions, and ginger. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

Step 2

Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface and drop about a teaspoon of the pork mixture into the center. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water using your fingertip.

Step 3

Fold the wrapper in half to make a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal tightly and ensure no air is trapped inside.

Step 4

Bring the two corners of the longer edge of the triangle up and moisten them with water, then pinch them together to form a small 'hat' shape. Repeat this process with remaining filling and wrappers.

Step 5

In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil over medium-high heat. Add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, reduce the heat, and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Season the broth with remaining soy sauce, salt, and white pepper.

Step 7

Gently place the filled wontons into the broth, then add the bok choy. Allow them to cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the wontons float and are cooked through.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
