This is a very basic chow mein recipe. You can add proteins such as beef, pork, chicken, sausages, shrimp, pressed tofu and more. Try adding some shitake mushrooms or preserved vegetables for some added flavours. White sesame seeds are also often sprinkled on top (I forgot the sesame seeds when I made the one in the picture, oops!)
View RecipeI used 3 chicken legs that totaled approx. 600g with the bone-in. After removing the bones, I had approx. 350g of meat. You may also choose to use a whole chicken which is probably double the size. This recipe will not work well with de-boned raw chicken. You may also want to add peanuts, sesame sauce, sesame seeds, sea cucumber, black fungus, celery or carrots to this dish. You can consider substituting the cucumbers with green papaya.
View RecipeThere is not a lot of changes that could be made without affecting the authentic Cantonese Wonton taste. I was not able to find any dried shrimp roe. If you can find some, you can add 1 tsp to the filling. You can use my Hong Kong Zha Jiang noodle sauce to put over wontons as well. Some recipes use ground white sesames to give it a bit of nuttiness. Shrimp roe powder and shrimp shell is traditionally added to give more depth to the broth.
