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

Make the wontons: Mix pork, green onions, egg, hot sauce, and pepper together in a bowl. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Make the soup: Pour chicken broth into a pot and bring to a rolling boil. Add grated ginger, then add wontons; cook until wontons float to the surface, about 6 minutes.

Step 4

Garnish each bowl with green onions and soy sauce.
