Ingredients

For the Wontons

  • 225 grams (1/2 lb) medium ground pork
  • 115 grams (1/4 lb) peeled shrimp, chopped
  • 60 millilitres (1/4 cup) canned water chestnuts, finely chopped
  • 3 green onions, the white parts finely chopped and the green tops reserved
  • 10 millilitres (2 teaspoons) soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper
  • 30 wonton wrappers

For the Soup

  • 1 1/2 litres litres (6 cups) chicken broth
  • 250 millilitres (1 cup) water
  • 30 millilitres (2 tablespoons) fish sauce (nuoc mam)
  • 2 carrots, thinly sliced on the diagonal
  • 250 millilitres (1 cup) thinly sliced mushrooms

Directions

For the Wontons

  1. In a bowl, combine all the ingredients except the wrappers. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Place 10 ml (2 teaspoons) of the meat and shrimp mixture in the centre of a wrapper. Moisten the outside border with water. Seal by lifting up the wrapper and squeezing the edges together. Transfer to a baking sheet. Stuff the remaining wrappers.

For the Soup

  1. In a large saucepan, bring the broth, water and fish sauce to a boil. Add the wontons, carrots and mushrooms. Return to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until the wontons are cooked through, about 6 minutes. Adjust the seasoning.
  2. Meanwhile, thinly slice the green onion tops on the diagonal. Garnish the soup with the sliced onion tops and serve.
  3. Note: If you serve the soup the next day, add chicken broth as necessary.
