Authentic Chinese Pork Wontons Recipe for Dinner

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 1 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 pkg wonton wrappers (about 50 wrappers)
  • 4 cups chicken broth (for boiling)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (for dipping sauce)
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar (for dipping sauce)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, combine ground pork, green onions, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Mix well until fully combined.

    For best flavor, let the mixture rest for 30 minutes.
  2. Fill the Wontons

    Take a wonton wrapper and place about a teaspoon of filling in the center. Moisten the edges with water and fold to seal, forming a triangle.

    Ensure there are no air bubbles for a tight seal.
  3. Boil the Wontons

    In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a boil. Add the wontons in batches, cooking until they float, about 3-5 minutes.

    Do not overcrowd the pot to ensure even cooking.
  4. Prepare Dipping Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix soy sauce and rice vinegar for a simple dipping sauce.

    You can add chili oil for extra spice.
  5. Serve

    Remove the wontons from the broth and serve hot with dipping sauce.

    Garnish with additional green onions if desired.
