Ingredients:  
For the soup

2 1/2 cups water
1 teaspoon Soy Sauce
3 garlic cloves smashed
1 ounce approximately Ginger Root
2 green onions

For the Wonton filling
4 ounces ground pork

Directions:
In a medium/large pot, add all ingredients for the soup. Cover, bring it to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Turn off heat and let all the flavor come together. Meanwhile,let's make wontons!

In mixing bowl, combine all ingredients for the wonton filling and mix well with a spoon until cornstarch incorporated with other wet ingredients.

Take a wonton wrapper on your left hand (if you are right handed) and paint edges of square lightly with cold water using your finger tip. Put 1/2 teaspoon of filing in center of wrapper. Fold in half, triangle shape and seal it tightly by pinching edges together with your fingers. Paint one of lower side corners of triangle with water and bring right and left corner together (water painted side down) and press well to make traditional curved wonton shape. Place wontons about 1/2 inch apart on parchment paper lined baking sheet. Repeat until you finish with wonton filing and wrappers.

When your wontons are ready, discard solid ingredients from soup base and bring it to a boil.

Carefully add wontons and cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Wontons will be fully cooked in 3 minutes, but cook it longer so all flavor from wontons will melt in to soup. Taste and add salt and pepper to your taste at this point.

Transfer to a serving bowl, garnish with green onion, cilantro and pepper to your taste. Enjoy.

Shannon- This recipe has a new name since creating this cookbook. I used voice text to input the recipe info into the computer and it put out Wong Tong. There is no better name since Erin and Denny Wong are the ones who are contributing this recipe!
