Ingredients

  • 250g ground pork
  • 150g raw shrimp, peeled, deveined and finely chopped
  • 1 pack wonton wrappers (about 40 wrappers)
  • 3 spring scallions, thinly sliced (white and green parts separated)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine or dry sherry
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1.5 liters chicken stock
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil for frying
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

1

In a large bowl, combine ground pork, chopped shrimp, white parts of scallions, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, sesame oil, Shaoxing wine, grated ginger, garlic, egg white, and white pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

2

Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Add 1 teaspoon of filling to the center. Wet the edges with water, fold into a triangle, then bring the two bottom corners together and pinch to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers, setting aside 8 wontons for frying.

3

Heat vegetable oil in a small frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the 8 reserved wontons for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy, ensuring the internal temperature reaches 74°C. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

4

In a large pot, bring chicken stock to a boil with sliced ginger. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 10 minutes to infuse flavors.

5

Add remaining soy sauce and rice vinegar to the broth. Season with salt to taste.

6

Carefully drop the remaining wontons into the simmering broth. Cook for 5-6 minutes until wontons float and the pork filling reaches an internal temperature of 74°C to ensure safe consumption.

7

Ladle the soup and wontons into four serving bowls. Top each bowl with 2 crispy wontons, fresh scallion greens, and cilantro. Serve immediately while hot.
