Main Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Thai Red Curry Paste
- 1 can (14 oz) full-fat Coconut Milk
- 4 cups low-sodium Vegetable Broth
- 12 oz frozen or homemade Dumplings
Vegetables
- 2 cups Fresh Vegetables (bell peppers, bok choy, etc.), chopped
Garnishes
- 2 tbsp Lime Juice
- ¼ cup Cilantro, chopped
- ¼ cup Green Onions, sliced
Instructions
- Prepare Vegetables. Gather and chop your fresh vegetables into bite-sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly and blend well in the soup.
- Sauté Aromatics. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat, then add chopped onions and garlic. Cook until they are soft and fragrant, creating a flavorful base.
- Add Red Curry Paste. Stir in the Thai red curry paste and cook briefly until the aroma is released, intensifying the soup’s flavor.
- Add Liquids. Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth, stirring well to combine all the ingredients into a rich, creamy broth.
- Cook Dumplings and Vegetables. Add the dumplings and chopped vegetables to the pot. Simmer for about 10 minutes until the dumplings are cooked through and the vegetables are tender but still vibrant.
- Finish and Garnish. Squeeze lime juice over the soup to add a delicious tang, then garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and sliced green onions before serving for fresh, zesty accents.
Notes
- You can substitute vegetables based on seasonality or preference, such as using carrots, snap peas, or mushrooms.
- For a spicier soup, add extra red curry paste or a dash of chili flakes.
- Homemade dumplings add a fresh touch but frozen dumplings work perfectly for convenience.
- Adjust lime juice according to your taste for acidity.
- This soup is best served fresh but can be refrigerated and reheated gently.
