Description
Warm and comforting creamy Thai dumpling soup made with homemade dumplings and a rich coconut broth.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 cup finely chopped vegetables (carrots, spinach, or mushrooms)
- 1/2 cup cooked chicken or tofu (optional)
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons red curry paste
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon sugar (brown or coconut sugar)
- Fresh cilantro or basil for garnish
- Sliced green onions for garnish
- Lime wedges for garnish
- Chili flakes or sliced chilies (optional)
Instructions
- Start by preparing the dumplings. In a bowl, mix the flour and salt, then gradually add water, stirring until a dough forms. Knead it for about 5 minutes until smooth.
- Once your dough is ready, roll it out onto a floured surface. Cut out circles using a cookie cutter or a glass, about 2-3 inches in diameter. Place a small spoonful of your chosen filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over and pinch the edges to seal tightly.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Carefully drop the dumplings into the water and let them cook until they float to the surface, approximately 3-5 minutes.
- In a separate large pot, combine the broth, coconut milk, and red curry paste. Stir well, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Add the soy sauce, lime juice, and sugar to the broth. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
- Carefully add the cooked dumplings to the soup. Allow them to warm through in the broth for about 5 minutes.
- Serve hot in bowls garnished with fresh herbs, green onions, and lime wedges.
