*: fat content for ground beef is very likely lower, since fat is drained after cooking. It should be more like 7 g or so.

Cooking instruction
1. Brown ground beef and drain the fat. If you want to reduce the fat some more, rinse beef with hot water.
2. Put beef and everything else except wonton noodle and chicken broth in a sauce pan and turn on the heat to high until the sauce is boiling. Once the sauce is boiling, turn the heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour or until the sauce thickens.
3. After the sauce thickens, throw away the cinnamon stick, anise star and garlic skin.
4. Boil wonton noodle in water, and wonton in chicken broth. Once they're done, serve and garnish with green onion.

1st attempt:
This recipe taste great, but a little too sweet to my liking. Next time, I'll reduce sweet soy sauce to 1.5 tbsp only.
