Wonton Soup

A wonton soup almost as good as PF Chang's, in my humble opinon
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • ½ ~ pound mined pork loin
  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped green onion
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon dry ginger
  • 30 3.5 inch square wonton wrappers
  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 1/8 cup finely chopped green onion

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine pork, sugar, wine, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon chopped green onion and ginger. Blend well, and let stand for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Place about one teaspoon of the filling at the center of each wonton skin. Moisten all 4 edges of wonton wrapper with water, then pull the top corner down to the bottom, folding the wrapper over the filling to make a triangle. Press edges firmly to make a seal. Bring left and right corners together above the filling. Overlap the tips of these corners, moisten with water and press together. Continue until all wrappers are used.
  • For soup. Bring the chicken stock to a rolling boil. Drop wontons in, and cook for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion, and serve.
  • This soup was absolutely delicious as was concurred by my friend, Kathleen. I had 2 bowls. I am so impressed with myself.

Notes

I served with Turkey Lettuce Wraps.
