Instructions
Step1: Prepare the wonton filling
- Combine your chosen ground meat(pork/chicken/turkey) in a mixing bowl. I use pork for this recipe.
- Combine the meat, soy sauce, oyster sauce,garlic, green onion, sesame oil and white pepper thoroughly.
Step2: Assemble the wontons
- Place the wonton wrappers on a flat and clean surface.
- Add a teaspoon of the filling in each wrapper, wet the edges with water, fold over and tightly press the edges to seal the wontons.
Step3: Prepare the soup
- Boil the chicken broth in pot (or the vegetable soup if it's your preference)
- Once the broth boils, adjust the heat to medium; add the grated ginger and garlic to infuse the broth with flavor, then stir in the soy sauce. Add the chopped celery together with the carrots and cook for 2 minutes.
Step4: Cook the wontons
- Carefully drop the wontons into the broth one at a time and simmer for 5 minutes or until they all float because cooking time can vary with thickness of your wrappers.
Step5: Add the broccoli, bok choy shrimp and finish the cooking
- Add broccoli and bok choy and cook for 4minutes. Add the shrimp and cook foran extra 4 minutes.
- Adjust to low heat, add the spinach and cook for 2 minutes until tender.
