Method
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped mushrooms, crumbled tofu, spring onions, light soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper, mixing until it holds together.
Place a teaspoon of filling in the centre of each wonton wrapper, dab the edges with water, and fold into a triangle, then pinch the two bottom corners together.
Bring the vegetable stock to a simmer in a large saucepan with the sliced ginger and salt.
Bring a separate pot of water to the boil and cook the wontons for four minutes until they float and the wrapper is cooked through.
Lift the cooked wontons into serving bowls with a slotted spoon.
Ladle the hot broth over the wontons, scatter with extra spring onions and serve immediately.
