Wonton Soup (Wontons are good for frying also)
Approx. 24 wonton wrappers (pre-made wrappers work well)
1/2 cup finely minced chicken or pork (a 50/50 mixture of very lean beef
and pork works well too)
2 tbsps chopped cilantro
3 green onions, finely chopped
1 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1 egg, lightly beaten
5 cups chicken stock
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
dash sesame oil
Salt and pepper
Cilantro or watercress for garnish
******************
Place all the wonton wrappers on a large, flat surface. Mix together
the chicken or pork, chopped cilantro, green onions and ginger.
Brush the edges of the wrappers lightly with beaten egg. Place a small
mound of mixture on one half of the wrappers and fold the other half
over the top to form a triangle. Press with fingers to seal the
edges well.
Bring the stock to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the filled wontons
and simmer 5-10 minutes or until they float to the surface. Add
remaining ingredients to the soup, using only the leaves of the
cilantro or watercress for garnish.
Serves 6-8
Note, for fried wontons, remove the wontons from the stock when they
first float and drain. After draining, quickly deep-fry in peanut oil
and drain again.
