Turkey dumplings in green onion-shitake broth

This hearty and delicious soup is perfect for those cold fall nights.
Since preparation is fun and easy, I find this meal is a great way to enlist family members into forming the dumplings.




Mix 1 lb. ground turkey with green onion (bottoms), minced garlic , sesame oil, fresh grated ginger, Sriracha sauce, salt and pepper



Prepare dumplings by placing heaping spoonful size of ground turkey mixture on a square won ton wrapper.  After moistening edges of wrapper with water, fold four corners up and over meat, sealing all edges tightly



Cute little dumplings waiting to be simmered



Simple broth- 8 cups water with handful of sliced shitake mushrooms, 2 Tb. Better Than Bullion-Chicken Base and 2 Tb. soy sauce.  Lower dumplings into simmering broth, cover and simmer about 8 min.


Finish off soup with green onion tops, and a shake of sesame oil
