Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Wonton Soup
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pork or shrimp with minced garlic, minced ginger, chopped green onions, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix until well blended and slightly sticky.
  2. Take a wonton wrapper and place about 1 teaspoon of the filling in its center. Wet the edges of the wrapper, then fold to create a triangle and press the edges together to seal.
  3. In a large pot, pour in 2 cups of broth and bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat. Let simmer for about 5 minutes.
  4. Carefully add the assembled wontons to the boiling broth. Stir gently to prevent sticking and cook for about 4-5 minutes until they float.
  5. Ladle the soup into bowls, ensuring each has an even number of wontons, and sprinkle with extra chopped green onions for garnish.

Notes

Ensure the filling is mixed until slightly sticky to help the wontons stay sealed during cooking. For extra flavor, consider simmering broth with aromatics like star anise or mushrooms.
