Description

Super simple and easy vegan wonton soup! Warm, comforting and perfect for a cozy weeknight meal.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 20 wonton wrappers
  • 3-4 dried shiitake mushroom, rehydrated and finely chopped (15g)
  • 1 cup Chinese greens, finely chopped (60-80g // I use yu choy or bok choy)*
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tsp ginger, minced
  • 130g traditional (fresh) or medium firm tofu
  • 1 ½ tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 shaoxing wine, optional
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • ½ tsp salt

Broth

  • 2 ½ cups vegetable broth** (I used one infused with ginger)
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tsp soy sauce, to taste
  • 1 scallion, sliced

Instructions

  1. Add the tofu to a bowl and mash with your hands. Add the shiitake mushrooms, Chinese greens, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, shaoxing wine, sesame oil and salt and mix until combined.
  2. Add 1 heaping tablespoon of filling in the middle of a wonton wrapper. Dip your finger into some water and run it along two edges. Fold the bottom corner up and seal to form a triangle (see photo above). Wet one corner and bring the other corner and press gently so they stick together. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling until complete.
  3. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. Add wontons to the water (as many as you can add without over crowding). Wait for the water to come to a rolling boil again and cook for 1 minute. Be careful not to overcook your wontons.
  4. In the meantime, also heat up some broth. Use a slotted ladle and remove the wontons into a bowl. Add 1-1 ¼ cup of broth and serve with scallions and aroma oil (or sesame oil). Enjoy!

Notes

  • *If you prefer a softer filling, blanch the greens for 45 seconds in boiling water first. Rinse with cold water, squeeze excess liquid out and then finely chop.
  • ** I used a broth infused with a little ginger. If your broth is plain, simmer 2 ¾ cup of broth with a piece of ginger for 5 minutes. 
  • Helpful Equipment: ladle, slotted ladle

    Loved making this recipe! It was so easy to make, and with the flavors being so simple it was also really easy to reuse the extra filling! I ended up using the extra filling in an egg roll with some cabbage inside.

    Glad I found this recipe just in time for Chinese New Year, now I know what I'm having.

    Some of the best wontons I've ever had honestly. A lot of the appeal is how easy it was to make. The ginger in the filling really makes the wontons pop.

    Literally SO good any way you make it! It is such a versatile and easy recipe. The only thing that took a long time was folding the wontons but it is super worth the effort. I’m really thrilled to try more recipes.

    Thanks. Just gorgeous wonton soup Lisa! I've never tried making wonton soup from scratch and was glad to find your recipe today. The hardest part was trying to find a store that carries wonton wrappers 🙂 I can imagine how you can experiment with the filling to tweak it as you like. But this was so delicious. Thanks again.

    Highly recommend this recipe to anyone craving a lightweight, yet simultaneously filling dish that feels like a warm embrace of the soul. Infusing the vegetable broth with ginger was definitely an ace suggestion that took the broth to the next level (I also added the re-hydrated shiitake mushroom stock). The broth really complimented the flavor profile of the wonton filling, which was paaaacked with so much deliciousness. The ginger and shaoxing wine??? *Chef's kiss*
    Honestly the best wontons I've ever had. Thank you again for sharing this recipe with us!
