  1. Combine the stock, water, fish sauce, lemon grass, lime leaves, ginger, chilli and garlic in a large saucepan. Bring to the boil over medium-high heat. Cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until fragrant and reduced slightly. Remove from heat. Strain through a fine sieve into a clean saucepan. Discard solids.
  2. Meanwhile, combine the prawn, extra garlic, chives and lemon rind in a bowl. Place wonton wrappers on a clean work surface. Place 1 heaped teaspoonful of prawn mixture in the centre of each wrapper. Brush edges lightly with water. Fold in half diagonally to enclose filling and form a triangle. Pull top 2 corners up to meet each other, with 1 corner overlapping the other slightly. Firmly press edges of wonton wrappers to seal.
  3. Bring soup to a simmer over medium heat. Add wontons and asparagus and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes or until wontons are cooked and asparagus is tender crisp. Taste and season with salt. Remove from heat. Stir in coriander and green shallot.
  4. Ladle hot soup among serving bowls. Serve immediately.
