This vegan wonton soup is so delicious and simple to make! The vegan wontons are packed with crumbled tofu, marinated in soy, sesame, ginger, and garlic. All simmered in a flavorful, savory broth.
Heat the sesame oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook 1-2 minutes, until softened.
Add the tofu, and use a fork to crumble it into bite-sized pieces. Add the garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and cilantro. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes, until it is safe to handle.
Sprinkle some flour on your work surface (counter or cutting board). Place one wonton wrapper on the work surface. Top with 1-2 tsp of the tofu mixture.
Wrap the wonton wrapper around the filling and press to seal. You can dab a bit of water around the edges of the wonton wrapper to help it seal better. Repeat with remaining wontons.
