Authentic Wonton Soup

Ingredients

• Ground pork (1/2 pound)
• Wonton wrappers (1 package (about 30-40 wrappers))
• Shiitake mushrooms (1 cup, sliced)
• Bok choy (2 cups, chopped)
• Chicken broth (6 cups)
• Green onions (2, finely chopped)
• Egg (1, beaten)
• Sesame oil (1 tablespoon)
• Soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
• Salt (to taste)
• Pepper (to taste)

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, chopped green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, and beaten egg. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well incorporated.
2. Take a wonton wrapper and place a teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold it over to create a triangle shape, and seal the edges tightly to prevent any filling from escaping. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
3. In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
4. Carefully add the prepared wontons to the boiling broth. Allow them to cook for about 5 minutes or until they float to the surface, indicating they are done.
5. Add the chopped bok choy and sliced shiitake mushrooms to the pot. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant in color.
6. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or soy sauce if desired. Serve the soup hot, garnished with additional chopped green onions for an extra pop of flavor.
