- Simmer for 4 minutes and remove from the heat. Mix the cornflour with a little cold water to make a smooth paste and stir into the soup, bring back to a simmer.
- To cook the wontons, heat a large pan of boiling water and simmer the wontons for 3-5 minutes until they rise to the top and the filling is cooked. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and reserve.
- To serve, add the wontons to the soup and do not re-boil. Serve with extra soy sauce, garnished with the coriander leaves.
