Nice and sure wanton and growing in Malaysia, how not to drool but at times we go for the one with shrimps/prawns only inside.
Sounds like comfort soup, I really like the way it is garnished too. Hope the New Year is off to a great start for you!

I’ve never had anything like this before, but it would certainly be perfect for the weather we are having here! 🙂
It sounds soothing and delicious, and yes, wonton wrappers make wonderfully delicate “noodles” in soups. Yummy!

That looks so satisfying, but not too heavy. I love it.

Looking yumm!! What a coincidence in language as well! Pangsit is actually what Indonesian call for wonton. I love bakso (Indonesian meatball soup) and it consist beef ball, stuffed tofu, noodle, wonton, fried wonton.

The consistency of the soup is perfect. I used spring roll wrappers since I did not have wonton wrappers. Cut them in quarters and folded them like a box. The wrappers eventually melted into the soup and the filling became more of a porkball but the melted wrapper gave the soup a thickness that almost mimicked the soup inside soup dumplings. We love it!
