Ingredients

• 1 pound ground pork
• ground black pepper to taste
• 2 green onions, minced
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 1 (16 ounce) package wonton wrappers
• 2 teaspoons hot sauce
• 1 dash soy sauce, or to taste
• 5 green onions, sliced
• 1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger, grated
• 2 (32 ounce) cartons chicken broth

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix pork, green onions, egg, and hot sauce for wontons together in a bowl; season with pepper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Place a heaping teaspoon of pork mixture in the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten edges with water. Fold the bottom point to the top point, creating a triangle, and pinch to seal. Fold the outer 2 points in toward the center, pinching together. Repeat to form remaining wontons.

Step 3

Pour chicken broth in a pot and bring to a rolling boil. Add grated ginger. Add wontons and cook until they float to the surface, indicating they are ready, about 6 minutes.

Step 4

Serve, garnished with green onions and soy sauce.
