I found this recipe online when looking for uses for bok choy. However, I made several changes and would probably adjust again next time around. (substitute tofu or mushrooms? less meat, more veggies!) Regardless, it was delicious. My take:


medium skillet
mixing bowl
cookie sheet

1 lb ground turkey
4 cloves garlic
1 inch ginger
3 cups bok choy, finely chopped
1/2 cup green onion, finely chopped
2 T soy sauce
2 T fish sauce
1 t sesame oil
won ton wrappers

Preheat oven to 400 F. Cook turkey, garlic, and ginger over medium heat. Drain.

Combine all ingredients and spoon one scant tablespoon, lengthwise, onto a won ton wrapper and roll, leaving ends open. Repeat and line up on pan.

Brush with sesame oil. Bake about 15 minutes or until golden.

Dipping sauce: equal parts soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and sesame oil. Season with garlic powder and chili sauce to taste.

(I can’t find the source of this recipe found online. Here is what I did.)

4 oz frozen shrimp, finely chopped
1 egg yolk, beaten
1/2 c. bok choy, finely chopped
1/2 c. onion, finely chopped
1 T. soy sauce
1/2 t. sugar
1″ chopped ginger
1/4 t. salt
1/8 t. pepper
20 won ton skins
chicken broth (1 cup for each bowl)
spinach (handful for each bowl)
chili sauce
fish sauce
scallions

Combine shrimp, egg, bok choy, onion, soy sauce, ginger, sugar, salt, and pepper. Put chicken broth on to boil. Spoon just under 1T off center on the won ton, roll and press with wet fingers to seal. Gently drop won tons into boiling stock for 3-5 minutes (cook only those you are serving immediately).

Place spinach into each bowl and chop scallions. Pour broth over spinach to wilt and divide won tons. Top with scallions and serve with chili sauce, fish sauce, and soy sauce to flavor broth.
