Ingredients
For the Soup Base
-
1 tbsp avocado oil
-
1 cup diced onion
-
4 scallions (white parts finely chopped; green parts for garnish)
-
1 tbsp minced garlic
-
1 tsp salt
-
1/2 cup chopped cremini mushrooms
-
1 tbsp red Thai curry paste
-
1 tsp sugar
-
1 tsp soy sauce
-
3 cups vegetable broth
-
1 cup full-fat coconut milk
-
1 bag frozen vegan dumplings (12–15 pieces)
For Serving & Garnish
-
2–3 tsp chili oil
-
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
-
1 tbsp sliced scallion greens
-
1 tbsp crunchy garlic
Instructions
-
Heat avocado oil in a heavy-bottom pot over medium-low heat. Add diced onion, scallion whites, minced garlic, and salt. Cook until onions soften and begin to caramelize.
-
Add cremini mushrooms and sauté until tender and most of the moisture has evaporated.
-
Stir in red Thai curry paste, sugar, and soy sauce. Cook for 1 minute to deepen the flavor.
-
Pour in vegetable broth and bring the soup to a gentle simmer.
-
Add coconut milk, stirring well to combine. Return to a gentle simmer.
-
Add frozen vegan dumplings directly into the pot. Cook 7 minutes or until soft and warmed through.
-
Serve hot and garnish with chili oil, scallion greens, cilantro, and crunchy garlic.
Notes
Full-fat coconut milk gives the soup a richer, creamier texture.
Adjust the spice level with more or less curry paste or chili oil.
Any style of frozen dumplings (vegan, chicken, pork) works—just adjust cooking time slightly.
