Wonton Soup Recipe

Ingredients: ground turkey, napa, baby bok-choy ginger, garlic, mushrooms, pre-made wonton skin, chicken broth, salt, pepper, oil

Procedure

Brown ginger and garlic in some oil in a sauce pan. Add chicken broth and simmer. Add mushrooms and baby bok-choy. Add salt and pepper to taste and let simmer.

In a mixing bowl, mix ground turkey, shredded napa, diced mushrooms, salt, and pepper. Prepare a separate bowl containing egg (you may dilute with water if desired).

Using egg, turkey mixture, and wonton skins, fold wontons in manner described in video below. Place in simmering broth and turn up to heat, cooking until filling is cooked (15 minutes or so).

Wontons can be pre-made and frozen by laying separately on a dish inside the fridge. Separate layers with plastic wrap so they don’t stick together.

  • Massage brown sugar and salt into the meat before adding to marinade
  • Ignore crushed pear
  • Add shredded carrots to marinade
  • Create marinade slurry by pulsing in food processor
  • Used chuck steak
  • Cut is thicker than bulgogi
  • Add carrots and broccoli when cooking beef
