Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

Wontons:

  • ½ pound boneless pork loin, coarsely chopped

  • 2 ounces peeled shrimp, finely chopped

  • 1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine

  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce

  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped green onions

  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh ginger root

  • 24 (3.5 inch square) wonton wrappers

Soup:

  • 3 cups chicken stock

  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions

Directions

  1. To make the wontons: Mix pork, shrimp, rice wine, soy sauce, brown sugar, green onions, and ginger together in a large bowl until well combined. Let stand for 25 to 30 minutes.

  2. Spoon about 1 teaspoon filling onto the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten all four wrapper edges with water and fold over filling to make a triangle; press the edges firmly to seal. Bring left and right corners together above filling; overlap the tips of these corners, moisten with water, and press together to seal. Repeat until all wrappers have been filled and sealed.

  3. To make the soup: Bring chicken stock to a rolling boil in a pot. Gently drop in wontons and cook for 5 minutes.

  4. Ladle into bowls and garnish with green onions.

This is one of my husband's favorites. I created it using several other Swedish meatball recipes that didn't quite make the grade.

Aloo Paratha

Aloo Paratha

This is a traditional Indian aloo paratha that is very popular for every age group. It's a heavenly dish to serve on a rainy day. It's an easy recipe and a definite group pleaser. Garnish each paratha with a thin slice of butter and serve with plain yogurt.

Chicken Pastina

Chef John's chicken pastina is like a big, warm hug from an Italian grandma, a comfort food that will, quite literally, change your mood. You can make this simple soup with a fortified broth if you have the time, or simply use off-the-shelf chicken broth for the 15-minute version.

Bagna Cauda

Bagna Cauda

A family friend made bagna cauda for me and it has been my favorite dipping sauce since. If you like garlic, you'll love this! It's traditionally served warm with crusty Italian bread, endive, or roasted potatoes on Christmas Eve.

Lemon Garlic Butter Baked Cod

Lemon Garlic Butter Baked Cod

This baked cod is a fast-to-prepare main dish. I like to boil some baby gold potatoes and mash them while the fish bakes, then serve the fish over mashed potatoes on a bed of lightly wilted spinach. The luscious butter sauce adds flavor to both the potatoes and spinach.
