Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Broth: In a medium saucepan, pour chicken broth and add ginger and Shaoxing wine. Bring to a rolling boil, then stir in soy sauce, white pepper, and sugar. Let simmer for 5 minutes.
  2. Blanch the Greens: In a separate pot of boiling water, gently add choy sum and cook for 40-50 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  3. Cook the Noodles: In the boiling water, add thin egg noodles and cook according to package instructions for 2-3 minutes. Drain and place in a serving bowl.
  4. Prepare the Wontons: In a small pot, bring water to a boil and add wontons. Cook until they float, about 3-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
  5. Assemble the Soup: Ladle the hot broth over the noodles, place wontons on top, and add char siu pork and blanched choy sum.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Drizzle sesame oil over the soup and sprinkle with fried shallots and chopped green onions. Enjoy!
