Step-by-Step Instructions

1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, shrimp, ginger, scallions, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are well combined.
2
Lay a wonton wrapper on a clean surface. Place a tablespoon of the pork and shrimp mixture in the center of the wrapper. Dip your finger in a small amount of water and run it along the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper into a triangle by bringing the two opposite corners together to form a point. Press the edges together to seal the wonton.
3
Repeat the process with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
4
In a large pot, bring the pork broth to a boil. Carefully add the wontons to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
5
Serve the wonton soup hot, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds. You can also add some noodles or rice to make the dish more filling.
