Ingredients
  

For the Soup
  • 1 package Frozen Soup Dumplings Convenient and perfect for a quick dinner, just cook from frozen!
  • 1 tablespoon Oil Essential for sautéing the curry paste to release its robust flavors.
  • 1 tablespoon Red Curry Paste Provides a bold kick; feel free to substitute with green curry paste for a milder flavor.
  • 1 cup Chicken Stock Creates a hearty soup base; use vegetable stock for a vegan option.
  • ⅓ cup Coconut Milk Adds a creamy layer that enhances the curry's richness; almond milk is a lighter alternative.
  • 1 teaspoon Fish Sauce Elevates umami notes; swap with soy sauce to maintain a vegan profile.
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar Balances the spice; honey or agave syrup can work beautifully as substitutes.
  • 2 leaves Kaffir Lime Leaves Infuses fresh citrus flavor; lime zest can replace this if needed.
  • Thai Basil Leaves Adds a sweet aroma; sweet basil can be used if Thai basil is unavailable.

Equipment

  • medium pot

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a medium pot, warm 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Once the oil is hot, add 1 tablespoon of red curry paste. Stir continuously for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Pour in 1 cup of chicken stock, stirring well. Increase the heat to bring to a gentle simmer for 3-4 minutes.
  4. Introduce ⅓ cup of coconut milk, 1 teaspoon of fish sauce, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 2 kaffir lime leaves. Stir to combine and simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  5. Carefully add the frozen soup dumplings, cover, and steam in the sauce for about 12 minutes or until cooked through.
  6. Ensure the lid fits snugly while cooking to retain steam and moisture.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in fresh Thai basil leaves. Let them infuse the sauce for a minute before serving.
  8. Ladle the soup dumplings into bowls and serve hot. Pair with jasmine rice or a light salad.

Notes

Gentle stirring prevents dumplings from sticking. Adjust sauce thickness with stock and always use frozen dumplings directly in the sauce for best results.
