4-6
ingredients
- 6 shiitake mushrooms, soaked in boiling water for at least 15 minutes and then chopped fine
- 500 g pork mince
- 1 cup spring onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 1⁄2 cup bamboo shoot, chopped fine
- 1⁄2 cup water chestnut, chopped fine
- 1⁄3 cup soy sauce
- 1 (500 g) package wonton wrappers
- 2 liters chicken broth
- coriander leaves
- red chili
directions
- Combine the mushrooms, pork, spring onions, garlic, ginger, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, and soy sauce in a large bowl. Mix until thoroughly combined. You could even do this in a food processor.
- Place about 1/2 tsp of filling in a wrapper and roll up - moistening the sides to 'glue' the wonton together. I watched a Youtube video on how to roll the wontons - I heartily recommend that!
- Bring the chicken broth to a boil and drop in the filled won tons. Allow them to cook at a good simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Top each serving with some coriander and red chili.
- Yum!

Although I am a US citizen, I have spent most of my adult life living outside of the States. I've raised my family all over the world - and I have to say that my four kids are pretty terrific!
I am always looking for recipes that only call for basic ingredients. Because I don't live in the US, I often can't find packages or this, or jars and cans of that, even certain spices can be tricky.
My favorite cookbooks are the New Joy of Cooking, and anything by Nigela Lawson.
My passions are cooking and eating - big surprise there.
I have no pet peeves, I don't keep any peeves around long enough to make them into pets.
I especially love baking, but I'm trying to get away from that - the carbs are starting to stick to my hips a little too easily.
I took a Sushi making course recently. It was a lot of fun; I now know that I need to GO OUT for Sushi, not make it myself.
