Busters Recipes

Wonton Soup

1/2 pound boneless pork loin, coarsely chopped
2 ounces peeled shrimp, finely chopped
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon finely chopped green onion
1 teaspoon chopped fresh ginger root
24 (3.5 inch square) wonton wrappers
3 cups chicken stock
1/8 cup finely chopped green onion

In a large bowl, combine pork, shrimp, sugar, wine, soy sauce, 1
teaspoon chopped green onion and ginger. Blend well, and let stand
for 25 to 30 minutes.
Place about one teaspoon of the filling at the center of each wonton
skin. Moisten all 4 edges of wonton wrapper with water, then pull the
top corner down to the bottom, folding the wrapper over the filling
to make a triangle. Press edges firmly to make a seal. Bring left and
right corners together above the filling. Overlap the tips of these
corners, moisten with water and press together. Continue until all
wrappers are used.
FOR SOUP: Bring the chicken stock to a rolling boil. Drop wontons in,
and cook for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion, and serve.
Yield: 8 servings
