This recipe is based off TikTok’s Brendan Pang’s Red Curry Wonton Soup. Since red curry is a bit too spicy for me, we switched to the Green Curry, that I know and love. And this soup is perfect!
Green Curry Soup
Imagine a steaming bowl of Green Curry Soup that tantalizes your senses from the moment it's placed in front of you. The broth, a fragrant blend of sautéed onions, ginger, and creamy coconut milk, is enriched with chicken stock and the distinctive notes of Japanese green curry, creating a vibrant, aromatic base. The baby bok choy, with its tender leaves and crisp stems, adds a delightful crunch and a touch of verdant freshness. The dumplings, or shumai, nestled in the broth, are plump and savory, each bite bursting with umami goodness.
Simmered gently in a mirin-enhanced chicken stock, the baby bok choy and dumplings absorb a delicate sweetness, balancing the spiciness of the curry. As you ladle the rich, green curry soup over the bok choy and dumplings, the bowl transforms into a harmonious blend of textures and flavors. The creamy, spicy broth coats each dumpling, while the bok choy remains vibrant and crunchy. Every spoonful offers a delightful combination of soft, succulent dumplings and crisp greens, making this Green Curry Soup a truly satisfying and comforting dish.
