SOUP:
- 1 lb. ground hot pork sausage
- 2 T. olive oil
- 1 med. yellow onion peeled and diced
- 2 med. carrots peeled and diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced

Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat cook the sausage for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, breaking up the sausage until browned. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the sausage to a plate and set aside.

- Stir in the sesame oil until combined. Taste and season the soup with a few generous pinches of salt and black pepper as needed.
- Serve warm garnished with sesame seeds, green onions, and crispy wonton strips.
Notes
To make homemade wonton strips, cut the egg roll wrappers into desired shape/size. Then briefly fry in vegetable oil until golden.
