Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons curry paste (red, yellow, or green)
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, spinach, mushrooms, edamame)
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari)
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk (or non-dairy milk)
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter (or oil)

Instructions

  • In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the curry paste and cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the spices to bloom and release their aroma. Be careful not to burn the paste.
  • Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  • Add the mixed vegetables to the pot and cook until they are tender-crisp, about 8-10 minutes.
  • While the vegetables are cooking, prepare the dumplings. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add the milk and melted butter (or oil) to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the simmering soup. Be careful not to overcrowd the pot. Work in batches if necessary.
  • Cover the pot and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the dumplings are puffed up and cooked through. The dumplings should be firm and cooked throughout. Cut into one to check if needed.
  • Stir in the lime juice and soy sauce (or tamari). Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If desired, add a teaspoon of sesame oil, a dash of fish sauce (if not vegan), or a squeeze of sriracha.
  • Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and a lime wedge. Enjoy!

Notes

A symphony of creamy coconut milk, fragrant curry spices, and pillowy soft dumplings, all melding together in a single, slurp-worthy bowl. The ultimate fusion comfort food, perfect for fall and winter, and surprisingly easy to make at home.
