Instructions:
1. Prepare the Fish Wonton Filling

• In a bowl, combine the finely chopped fish fillets, green onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.

2. Assemble the Wontons

• Take a wonton wrapper and place a small spoonful of the fish mixture in the center.
• Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water.
• Fold the wrapper over the filling to create a triangle, and press the edges to seal. Make sure there is no air trapped inside. You can also fold the wontons into a desired shape, such as a simple triangle or gather the corners to form a "purse" shape.

3. Cook the Wontons

• Bring a large pot of water to a gentle boil.
• Carefully add the wontons to the boiling water and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface and the fish is cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

4. Prepare the Soup

• In a separate pot, bring the chicken or vegetable broth to a simmer.
• Add soy sauce and sesame oil to the broth and stir.
• Add the chopped bok choy or baby spinach and let it simmer for a couple of minutes until it's tender.

5. Serve

• Place a few cooked wontons in serving bowls.
• Ladle the hot soup with bok choy or spinach over the wontons.
• Garnish with chopped green onions.
