Dumpling Soup with Leafy Greens and Green Onions

Prepare the Dumplings:

1. In a bowl, mix the ground pork or chicken, chopped Napa cabbage, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic until well combined.

2. Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each wonton wrapper.

3. Moisten the edges with water, fold into a triangle, and press to seal—making sure there are no air pockets.

4. Bring the two corners of the triangle together and press to seal them (forming a classic dumpling shape).

Cook the Dumplings:

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

2. Add dumplings in batches and cook for 4–5 minutes or until they float to the surface.

3. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
