  • 1 ½ cups roughly chopped white onion
  • ¼ cup roughly chopped ginger
  • 6 cloves garlic (smashed)
  • 8 cups vegan chicken broth or vegetable broth (divided)
  • 1 oz dried shiitake mushrooms (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 14 oz vegan ground sausage or beef
  • ¼ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 prepared vegan eggs
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon minced chives

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Sauté onions, ginger, and garlic for 5-6 minutes until caramelized.
  2. Add 1 cup of broth to the pot, scraping up brown bits. Stir in remaining broth, mushrooms (if using), soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Simmer for 30 minutes.
  3. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve to remove solids; return to heat.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine filling ingredients thoroughly and let sit for 5-10 minutes.
  5. Drop teaspoon-sized balls of filling into the simmering broth; cover and cook for about 15 minutes.
  6. Add chopped bok choy and simmer until tender (2-3 minutes).
  7. Gently add wonton wrappers one at a time; let simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with sliced green onions and chili oil.
