1.5 (12 oz.) pkgs. wonton wrappers (approx. 50 wrappers per pkg.)
Water to seal wrappers

Chinese barbequed/roasted red pork, cut into matchsticks - to taste - optional

To make filling/wontons:
Place green onions, garlic, shallot, mushroom, and ginger in a mini food processor and pulse to a fine chop or chop finely by hand.
Place pork and other filling ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
Place 1 tsp. filling in the center of each wrapper.
Fold over at the center to make a triangle. Wet with water along the edges & press together.
Gently press an indent in the middle of the flat side.
Pull two the tails together and fold over each other, pressing together with a little water.

To cook wontons:
Bring a pot of water to a boil.
Drop wontons in and stir.
Cook for about 5 minutes or until they float to the top of the pot.
Remove with a spider strainer and set aside.
- Alternately may cook wontons in stock/broth till they float to the top of the pot then continue with soup instructions.

For Soup:
In a large saucepan bring chicken stock/ broth to a boil.
Add soy sauce, wontons, and bok choy, and return to a boil.
Serve garnished with green onions, slivered roasted red pork, and a splash of hot chili sesame oil if desired.
