Follow The Directions

01

Step
1 hrs 10 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the rice wine and cornstarch. Add the ground pork, 2 tablespoons of green onion, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, and sugar. Stir vigorously until well combined, achieving a smooth, paste-like consistency (approximately 10 minutes). Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the pork mixture to firm up.

02

Step
15 mins

Take a wonton wrapper and place about 1 tablespoon of the chilled pork mixture in the center. Lightly brush the edges of the wrapper with beaten egg. Carefully pinch the edges together to create a sealed pouch, ensuring no air pockets remain. Repeat this process with the remaining wonton wrappers and pork mixture. Refrigerate the assembled wontons until ready to cook.

03

Step
8 mins

Prepare a steamer by placing a steamer insert into a saucepan. Fill the saucepan with water, ensuring the water level is just below the bottom of the steamer insert. Bring the water to a rolling boil. Add the sliced bok choy, sugar snap peas, carrot, and 2 tablespoons of green onion to the steamer basket. Cover and steam until the vegetables are tender-crisp, approximately 2 to 6 minutes. Remove the steamed vegetables and divide them evenly among 4 soup bowls.

04

Step
10 mins

Gently place the wontons in the steamer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Steam until the pork filling is cooked through and no longer pink inside, about 10 minutes. Remove the steamed wontons and arrange them artfully in the soup bowls alongside the steamed vegetables.

05

Step
6 mins

In a separate saucepan, heat the chicken broth and water until simmering hot, about 5 to 7 minutes. Carefully pour the hot broth mixture evenly into each of the soup bowls, ladling it over the vegetables and wontons. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of chopped green onion evenly over each bowl, adding a final touch of freshness and visual appeal. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a richer broth, consider using homemade chicken stock.
If you prefer a spicier soup, add a dash of chili oil or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the broth.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables based on your preference and what's in season, such as mushrooms, spinach, or bean sprouts.

    Freezing the wontons ahead of time was a lifesaver for a quick weeknight meal.
