1. In a medium size sauce pan saute the garlic and ginger in the oil for about a minute until fragrant.

7. Place 3 wontons in each soup bowl and drizzle each bowl with 1/2 teaspoon of the sesame oil.
8. Add about a quarter of each vegetable to the bowls and pour the hot broth over all. Serve with additional soy sauce if desired.
