Instructions:
Prepare the Wonton Filling:
In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, chopped shrimp, minced garlic, green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, salt, and white pepper. Mix thoroughly.
Assemble the Wontons:
Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each wonton wrapper.
Moisten the edges with water, fold in half to form a triangle, and press to seal. Alternatively, use different folding techniques.
Prepare the Soup Base:
In a large pot, bring chicken or vegetable broth to a boil.
Add ginger slices, smashed garlic, and green onion pieces. Simmer for 10-15 minutes to infuse flavors. Remove aromatics before serving.
Season the Broth:

Remove wontons with a slotted spoon and place directly into serving bowls.
Add Greens and Finish Soup:
Add chopped bok choy or greens to the simmering broth. Cook for 2-3 minutes until tender.
