Are you always in a hurry? The pork mixture can be mixed together early in the day. These fantastic wontons take a little extra time to put together but they are well worth the effort as they are the stars of the soup!
How do you make Pork Stuffed Wonton Soup?
Start by mixing together the pork, ginger, soy sauce, green onions, bread crumbs and egg. Cover and place in the refrigerator for a little bit while you start the soup.
Now heat a little canola and sesame oil in a large stockpot or dutch. Cook the onion, mushrooms, carrots and celery for about five minutes stirring frequently. Then reduce the heat to low and add the garlic and ginger. Cook for about one minute stirring constantly. Now add the vegetable broth and simmer until the carrots are tender.
Now place a wonton wrapper in front of you so that it is in the shape of a diamond. Dip your finger in cool water and moisten all around the edges of the wrapper. Place one teaspoon of the pork mixture in the center of the wonton wrapper and fold in half over the filling to make a triangle. Press firmly along the sides to seal. Moisten the left and right corners of the triangle and pinch them together firmly. While working with the wontons keep the extra skins and stuffed wontons covered with a lightly moistened paper towel to keep them from getting too dry.
Once your carrots are tender add the stuffed wontons and the Napa Cabbage to the soup and simmer for about three minutes. Finally garnish with green onions and serve.
