Chili-Spiced Shrimp Wonton Soup

"This delicious soup has a real kick of red-hot chilies, perfect to warm up a winter's day. If you prefer a milder flavor, remove the seeds from the chilies before using them."

directions

  • WONTONS:

  • Finely chop the shrimp. Put them in a bowl and stir in the garlic, scallion, soy sauce, fish sauce, cilantro and egg yolk.
  • Lay the wonton wrappers on work surface in a single layer and place about 1 tablespoon of the filling mixture into the middle of each. Brush the edges with egg white and fold each one into a triangle, pressing lightly to seal. Bring the 2 bottom corners of the triangle around to meet in the middle, securing with a little egg white to hold in place.
  • SOUP:

  • Slice the chilies on a steep diagonal angle to make long slices, removing seeds if you prefer. Slice the scallions on the same angle.
  • Place the stock, fish sauce, soy sauce, and rice wine in a large pot and bring to a boil. Add the chilies and scallions. Drop the wontons into the pot and simmer for 4-5 minutes until thoroughly heated.
  • Serve the soup and wontons in small bowls, garnish with fresh cilantro leaves sprinkled on top just before serving.

  1. I made just the soup for some pork wontons. I made a double batch which was enough broth to cook about 30 wontons. Used half the chilies and took out most of the seeds and that was a mild-medium spiciness, good for our family. I also used pork bone broth. Worked great.
     
  2. This is an excellent recipe Chili Spice. We loved this quick and easy to make soup. The broth was wonderful, flavorful and very spicy. The textures and flavors in the soup were perfect, with absolutely delicious wontons. I have put this recipe into my keeper box. Thanks for sharing this fantastic recipe which I will make often. Kudos on a really great soup.
     
  3. This soup is fantastic! The broth is delicious and has a little bit of kick! I used chicken stock because that is what I had. It is very easy to put together. We just loved this.
