A flavourful homemade wonton soup is a short time away with Rick's Rub™ Asian! 






INGREDIENTS:
Wontons

1/2 lb ground pork
1 Tbs Rick's Rub™ Asian
1/2 inch fresh ginger, grated
1 small egg or 1 large egg yolk
2 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp soy sauce
1 /2 cup green onion, thinly sliced
30 pre-made wonton wrappers

Soup
​
4 cups low sodium chicken broth
1 clove garlic, smashed
1/4 inch fresh ginger, sliced or smashed
1 Tbs soy sauce
1 Tbs Rick's Rub™ Asian
Extras: thinly sliced mushrooms, grated or thinly sliced carrot, bok choy or other leafy greens, thinly sliced green onion

METHOD:
  1. In a large bowl, prepare the wonton filling by mixing the ground pork, Rick's Rub™ Asian seasoning, ginger, egg, cornstarch, soy sauce, and green onion by hand until the filling is smooth and paste-like.
  2. Once mixed, allow the wonton filling to rest for 30 mins.
  3. To prepare the soup base, simmer chicken broth, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and Rick's Rub™ Asian in a stock pot to combine the flavours. Once the base has simmered, check the flavour and adjust as necessary. Keep warm.
  4. Assembling the wontons: place 1 tsp of the wonton filling in the center of the wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with a small amount of water and fold to make a triangle, Moisten the longer tips of the wrapper, bring them together and press to seal. Set aside and assemble the remaining wontons.
  5. Once the desired amount of wontons are prepared, add wontons and additional vegetables to the simmering broth. Cook until wontons float and the filling is cooked through. Top with thinly sliced green onions.
  6. Serve wonton soup and enjoy!

Any extra uncooked wontons can be frozen and will be ready for a quick weeknight meal!

Makes 3-4 small bowls or 2-3 large bowls

​When it's cold and dreary, or you're just trying to clear out some fridge space, make the ultimate comfort food: Shepherd's Pie!







INGREDIENTS:
1lb ground beef
1 onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 celery ribs, diced
1 yellow bell pepper, diced
2 mushrooms, diced
3-4 cloves garlic, diced
​1 tbsp Rick's Rub™ Original
1 can condensed mushroom soup 
2-3 large potatoes
butter
milk

METHOD:
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté ground beef until just a bit of pink left. Drain fat, then add onions to skillet to sauté until transparent. Add carrots, celery, yellow bell pepper, mushrooms and Rick's Rub™ Original seasoning to skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, being careful not to burn. 
  2. Turn heat on skillet to medium low and add can of condensed mushroom soup and 1/2 can of water. Stir to combine and allow to simmer.
  3. In a large sauce pot, prepare the mashed potato topping by boiling potatoes until fork-tender. Once cooked, drain water and mash potatoes with butter and milk until desired consistency.
  4. Preheat oven to 375F.
  5. In an oven safe casserole dish, transfer beef filling and spread evenly. Carefully layer mashed potatoes on top of beef mixture and spread evenly to 1/2 inch from the edge of the dish. This gap will help keep the filling from overflowing onto the potatoes.
  6. Once the potato is spread evenly, place a few small pats of butter on top of the potatoes to help brown in the oven. Chef's Tip: sprinkle shredded parmesan cheese over potatoes for added texture and flavour!
  7. Place casserole dish in the center of the oven and bake until potatoes have browned slightly.

Serve hot and enjoy with a side salad.

Makes great leftovers, too!
