Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup almond flour, finely ground
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 tsp ground psyllium husk
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 8 oz ground pork
  • 1 cup napa cabbage, finely chopped
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 6 cups chicken broth or stock
  • 3–4 slices fresh ginger
  • 3 garlic cloves, smashed
  • 2 whole green onions
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • Sea salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the wonton wrapper dough: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine shredded mozzarella cheese and almond flour. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, then microwave another 30 seconds if needed until soft and pliable. Quickly stir in egg, ground psyllium husk, and salt until dough forms. Let rest for 5 minutes.
  2. Roll and cut wrappers: Place dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out to about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thickness. Cut into 2-inch (5 cm) squares. Keep covered with a damp towel.
  3. Prepare the filling: In a bowl, mix ground pork, napa cabbage, green onions, grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper until evenly combined.
  4. Assemble wontons: Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in center of each wrapper square. Moisten edges with water, fold diagonally to form a triangle, press edges to seal, then bring outer corners together and pinch.
  5. Prepare the broth: In a large pot, add chicken broth, ginger slices, smashed garlic, and whole green onions. Simmer gently for 15 minutes, then remove solids with a slotted spoon.
  6. Cook wontons: Add wontons gently in batches to simmering broth. Cook 5-7 minutes until wontons float and filling is cooked through. Adjust seasoning with soy sauce and salt if needed.
  7. Serve: Ladle soup into bowls, garnish with chopped green onions or a drizzle of toasted sesame oil. Serve immediately.

Notes

If dough is too sticky, add a pinch more almond flour; if too dry, add a drop or two of water. Work quickly as dough firms fast. Keep wrappers covered with a damp cloth to prevent drying. Cook wontons gently in batches to avoid breaking. For dairy-free, substitute mozzarella with dairy-free cheese and try coconut flour for wrappers (texture will differ).
