Healthy Wonton Vegetables Soup

I have been thinking, why is it that off late I have been going for something soupy for my lunch??  Can it be due to the drastic weather change since the start of the Lunar New Year, or simply a change of my taste buds??  Well, if it is for something better, which in this case 'healthy,' why not!

Today, I am cooking myself a 'one-bowl meal' of wonton with lots of vegetables: red carrot, bok choy and bittergourd.  A satisfying, simple yet yummylicious lunch to share with all...

Few simple ingredients: (1 serving)

• red carrot (sliced)
• bittergourd (sliced)
• bok choy
• some home-made wonton (refer to my recipe posting on 30 October 2014)

• 1 red onion (peeled and sliced)
• 2 garlic cloves (peeled and chopped)
• 1 tbsp cooking oil
• 1 bowl water

Seasoning:

Chicken stock granules (to taste)

Dash grounded white pepper

Dipping sauce: (mix together)

2 chili padi (sliced)

1 small lime (obtain the juice)

2 tbsp light soy sauce

Few simple steps:

1. In a medium heated wok add cooking oil, saute the onion and garlic until fragrant, then add in the water.
2. As the water is about to boil add in red carrot, bittergourd and chicken stock granules, continue to let it boil for about 1 minute.
3. Put in the wonton, once the soup comes to a boil, taste for correct seasoning, add in bok choy and let it come to another boil.
4. Off the heat, dish into a bowl and sprinkle dash of grounded white pepper.
5. Serve hot with dipping sauce.

Lunch is served!
