Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 qt chicken stock
  • 1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 3 heads baby bok choy, roughly chopped
  • 20 wonton wrappers, cut into quarters
  • Chili crunch for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place chicken stock in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cut white parts of green onions into 1-inch pieces and add to broth. Add garlic clove and 1 teaspoon ginger. Add 1 tablespoon soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  2. Place pork in a bowl. Finely slice remaining green parts of green onions and add to the bowl. Add remaining soy sauce, ginger, salt, sesame oil, and cornstarch to the bowl and mix until well combined.
  3. Form the pork mixture into 1-inch balls and add to broth. Reduce heat to a simmer; cook 5 minutes or until the pork is fully cooked. Add wonton wrapper and box chop and simmer for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.  You want the boy chop to be tender and for the wontons to be fully cooked.
  4. Garnish with green onion and chili crunch.
