Frequently Asked Questions
How are the wontons prepared?
The chicken-stuffed wontons are gently boiled or steamed directly in the broth, making the wrappers very soft and silky.
How many chicken wontons are included?
A standard serving generally includes 4 to 6 plump chicken wontons, depending on their size.
Is the broth spicy?
The broth is very mild, savory, and aromatic. We recommend adding a splash of chili oil if you prefer it spicy.
Can I order the wontons fried instead?
For this soup, they are always served steamed. However, we do offer crispy fried wontons as a separate appetizer on our menu.
What greens are in the soup?
We typically use fresh pak choi, spinach, or spring onion greens to add freshness and a pop of color.
About Chicken Wonton Soup
Chicken Wonton Soup is a clear chicken broth carrying soft chicken-mince dumplings and finely sliced spring onion. It sits in the Indo-Chinese part of our menu, the style the Hakka Chinese of Kolkata created by adapting Chinese cooking for Indian palates, so although the wonton itself is Chinese in origin, the bowl as served is an Indian-Chinese hybrid rather than an authentic Chinese soup. At BHARAT in Huai Khwang we make it fresh to order using halal-marked chicken from Makro for the filling, which is seasoned with sesame oil, soy, and white pepper, wrapped in thin wrappers and gently cooked in the broth so they turn soft and silky. The dumplings are what set it apart on the list. Where the Chicken Manchow is dark and topped with crisp fried noodles and the hot-and-sour is thick and tangy, this stays close to a clean, mild broth built around the wontons, with fresh greens added for colour. It is the lighter cousin of those bolder chicken soups. The kitchen is halal-friendly with no pork and no alcohol, and the vegetables are fresh from Makro. Our chef from Uttarakhand keeps the broth mild, savoury, and aromatic so the seasoned filling stays the focus. Chilli oil can be added on the side if you prefer some heat, and the wontons here are served steamed rather than fried.
Vegetarians and meat-eaters share most tables here; the menu has plenty for both. Visit BHARAT →
