Instructions

Step 1: Sauté the Aromatics

  1. Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat.

  2. Add garlic, ginger, and onions, and sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. Stir in curry paste, turmeric, and red pepper flakes, cooking for 1 minute to release flavors.

Step 2: Make the Curry Broth

  1. Pour in chicken or vegetable broth, stirring to combine.

  2. Add soy sauce, fish sauce, coconut milk, and lime juice.

  3. Let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 3: Cook the Dumplings & Vegetables

  1. Add frozen dumplings directly into the broth. Let cook for 5-6 minutes, or until heated through.

Notes

  • Use quality dumplings – Trader Joe’s dumplings, homemade wontons, or frozen gyoza all work well.

  • Simmer the broth for depth – Letting the soup simmer for a few extra minutes enhances the flavors.

  • Don’t overcook dumplings – They should be soft but not falling apart.
