Prep: 15 min
Cook: 10 min
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 6 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
  2. 1 cup shredded cabbage
  3. 1/2 cup shredded or diced cooked pork
  4. 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  5. 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  6. 16 wonton wrappers
  7. 1/4 cup chopped scallions

Instructions

  1. Place broth and cabbage in a large saucepan and set pan over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer.
  2. Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine pork, soy sauce and sesame oil. Pulse 3 or 4 times until the pork is finely minced but not a paste.
  3. Arrange 16 wonton wrappers on a flat surface. Spoon filling onto the center of each wrapper, to within 1/4-inch of the edges (about 1 teaspoon per wrapper). Wet your fingers with water and pull up corners of the wontons to create individual “purses”. Pinch the edges together (with wet fingers) to seal.
  4. Place stuffed wontons in simmering broth. Cook 5 minutes, until wontons are tender and translucent. Remove from heat and stir in scallions.

Found this recipe today (12/5/20) and Robin’s delightful Carrot-Ginger Salad. Together they rock. Husband and I loved the combination and the fantastic way she makes dumplings. These are just what we needed to enjoy at home. Thank you Robin. You are greatly appreciated.

I made the stuffed wontons with leftover turkey from Thanksgiving instead of pork. It came out just as good! I will make this again but a bigger batch for supper.

I am definitly going to try this recipe out. I made some shrimp rolls today, they were delicious!

Easy easy and so good!

This recipe was perfect! I wouldn’t change a thing. I didn’t have sesame oil so I fried some sesame seeds in olive oil. My husband asked for seconds. YuM! On the side, I served fried orange cream cheese wontons.

Ok Ladies and Gents,

I made this recipe and my wontons busted from the bottom, not the top. I was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on how to keep them from busting.

I made them with pork sausage (I didn’t have any cooked pork and I was in a hurry). I put the cabbage in the broth (NOT reduced-sodium) and added some carrots, too. I strained the broth when the veggies were done and put the veggies and the pork in the food processor. I added a little soy sauce, but I didn’t have any sesame seed oil. After the wontons were made, I dropped them in the broth. The soup tasted great, but I wouldn’t do it again with the pork sausage. Not too bad, though. I also served them with fresh green beans cooked in a little water and some of the grease leftover from my pork sausage. I added a little minced garlic and some salt and pepper. Great for a little more fill and some extra veggies, plus super yummy!

My biggest problem was the busted wontons, so if anyone could help me out that would be great! Thanks!

I like to try the recipes exactly as they were written before exploring on my own, and this just wasn’t what I was hoping for. To my husband and me, this dish seemed as if the salty pork mixture didn’t go well with the unsalty broth. He said, “It’s like an explosion of salt every time I bite into the wonton part.” I also agree with the below poster that the cabbage was WAY too much. It was really easy though. I think with a few alterations, it could be delicious.

This was my first time making wontons. Her instructions made it easy.
The soup itself was tasty. I used half the amount of cabbage that was recommended and in my opinion, it was still too much compared to the number of wontons.
I am a college student and with our small kitchen, it was still an easy cook. I would make this again and I would recommend it to my friends.
Heidi Harmon
Very easy to make and yummy!

I bought the ingredients and made the soup and I loved it! my whole family really enjoyed it.

I still have to make the other recipes, but I can’t wait!! I am sure they will come out delicous as well. I already now they are easy to make and with the plan ahead it is very simple and great to cook great food, fast and easy!

Thanks Robin! I enjoy your shows and I have learned a lot.

Thanks,
