Won Ton Mein Chinese Dumplings And Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• For the wonton filling: Place the shrimp, pork, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, the oyster sauce and sesame oil in a medium bowl and mix with your hands to combine. Let marinate while you prepare the stock. (If time allows, marinate for at least 20 minutes and up to overnight; refrigerate if marinating for more than 2 hours.)
• For the broth: Bring 2 quarts water to a simmer in a large saucepan or pot and whisk in the chicken base until completely dissolved. Add the remaining broth ingredients and let simmer for at least 5 minutes.
• Continue making the wontons: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of 1 wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges with some of the beaten egg. Pinch in all the sides to make a small sack, enclosing the filling. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.
• For the noodles: Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions. During the last 3 to 5 minutes of cooking time, add the wontons and continue to boil until the wontons are cooked through and float to the top. Drain the noodles and wontons.
• For the assembly: Ladle 2 cups of the broth into each of 4 deep bowls. Divide the noodles and wontons among the bowls. Garnish with the scallions and cilantro.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook according to package instructions, until the noodles are just tender. Drain, rinse with cold water and drain well again. Divide them among four serving bowls.
• Place the same large pot over medium heat, and add sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Stir and cook for 30 seconds, until aromatic. Add turmeric, and stir for 15 seconds, until fragrant.
• Pour the vegetable stock into the pot, then season with 1 teaspoon of salt. Cover and cook for 8 to 10 minutes on medium heat, to allow flavors to meld.
• Remove the lid and add the miso paste, stirring constantly until it is dissolved. Taste, and season with more salt, if needed.
• Increase the heat to medium-high, and carefully drop the dumplings into the broth. When they float to the top, add the baby bok choy and broccoli, and cook for about 2 minutes, just until the broccoli is crisp-tender.
• Ladle the broth, dumplings, baby bok choy and broccoli into the four bowls over the noodles. To serve, top with cilantro or chopped scallions.
