Directions

1

Gently combine mushroom and avocado with remaining ingredients.

2

Lay out wonton wrappers a batch at a time with bottom point facing you (diamond shape). Brush a border of egg around wrap. Put a generous teaspoon of filling in the lower half of the diamond. Fold over top point to meet bottom to form a triangle; tightly seal edges by pressing firmly. Brush egg on tip of right triangle on each filled wonton. Bring it around to form a circle with left triangle; press firmly to join.

3

Cook wontons in batches in lightly salted boiling water until firm, 2 to 3 minutes; remove with a slotted spoon. Reserve cooked wontons.

4

Heat 3/4 cup seasoned broth, 1/2 ounce shiitake slices, 2 tablespoons diced avocado, a few baby spinach leaves, and 1 teaspoon lemon juice. When liquid comes to a simmer, add 3 wontons; heat through. Pour into serving bowl; garnish with some coriander leaves and carrot threads.
