Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the grated garlic and ginger, stirring continuously for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Cooking the Broth

  • Stir in the Thai red curry paste and cook for another minute to allow the flavors to bloom.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and coconut milk, stirring well to dissolve the curry paste. Let it come to a gentle simmer.
  • Mix in the soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, and lime juice. Let the soup simmer for 5 minutes.

Cooking the Dumplings

  • In a separate pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the frozen dumplings and cook according to the package instructions, typically 2-3 minutes until they float. Drain and set aside.

Assembling the Soup

  • Divide the cooked dumplings among serving bowls. Ladle the hot coconut curry broth over them.
  • Sprinkle chopped chives or cilantro on top and add your favorite vegetables.

Notes

Serve the soup hot with extra lime wedges on the side. Pairs well with rice or crusty bread. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
