Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp neutral oil (canola or avocado)
  • 1 tbsp Thai red curry paste
  • 1 tsp freshly grated ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 (13.5 oz) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce (or soy sauce for vegetarian)
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 2 tsp lime juice
  • 8–10 frozen dumplings or pot stickers
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms (shiitake or cremini)
  • 1 cup baby spinach or bok choy

Optional Toppings

  • Sliced red chili
  • Fresh cilantro
  • Thai basil
  • Green onions

Instructions

  1. Sauté Aromatics: Heat the neutral oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the Thai red curry paste, minced garlic, and freshly grated ginger. Stir continuously for 1–2 minutes until the mixture becomes fragrant, allowing the flavors to bloom and deepen.
  2. Add Broth & Coconut Milk: Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and the full-fat coconut milk. Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, which helps meld the flavors together.
  3. Season the Broth: Stir in the fish sauce (or soy sauce for a vegetarian option), sugar, and lime juice. Taste the broth and adjust the seasoning as needed for a balanced flavor profile that is savory, slightly sweet, and tangy.
  4. Add Dumplings: Gently place the frozen dumplings into the simmering soup. Cook for 6–8 minutes, or according to the package instructions, until the dumplings are fully cooked and tender.
  5. Add Vegetables: Stir in the sliced mushrooms and leafy greens such as baby spinach or bok choy. Continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant.
  6. Serve Hot: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with your choice of optional toppings, such as sliced red chili, fresh cilantro, Thai basil, or green onions, for added flavor and freshness.

Notes

  • Use full-fat coconut milk to achieve a silky, rich broth texture.
  • Add rice noodles or tofu to increase heartiness and make the soup more filling.
  • Adjust the spice level by increasing or decreasing the amount of Thai red curry paste according to your taste preference.
  • For best leftovers, store the broth and dumplings separately to maintain texture and freshness.
