Broth:
Sauté onion, leek, garlic and ginger in 1 tablespoon oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until softened, about 10 minutes. Add remaining oil, carrot, parsnip and turnip; cook 5 minutes. Add tomatoes with juice, salt, marjoram and 8 cups water. Bring to a boil. Lower heat; simmer, covered, 45 minutes. Strain through a fine-meshed sieve, pushing on solids to extract all liquid. Discard solids. Set aside.

Ravioli:
Sauté shallots in oil in skillet over medium-low heat until softened, about 6 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook 10 minutes until mushrooms are soft and almost all liquid has evaporated. Stir in salt, pepper and Port. Cook 5 minutes over high heat until liquid has evaporated. Cool to room temperature.

Lay 12 wonton sheets on a dry work surface. Cut each wonton in half lengthwise. Lay a scan teaspoonful of mushroom mixture on top-half of each wonton half. Dampen with water 4 sides of top half of wonton where mushroom filling is; fold dry half over filling; press down edges to seal. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers and filling.

Bring consomme to a boil in a large saucepan. Drop ravioli in; cook 2 minutes. Drop in diced carrot, parsnip and leek; cook 2 minutes. Serve.
