Ingredients
1 can (13.5 fl oz) full-fat coconut milk
2 to 3 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
4 to 5 bunches bok choy, leaves separated and chopped into 1-inch pieces
15 to 20 frozen dumplings
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup green onion, chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 to 2 tablespoons chili crisp
1 to 2 lime wedges
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and position the rack in the center.
In a 9×9-inch baking dish, whisk together the coconut milk, Thai red curry paste, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, fish sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil until smooth.
Spread the chopped bok choy evenly into the baking dish.
Arrange the frozen dumplings in a single layer over the bok choy, then spoon some of the sauce over the dumplings.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the dumplings are tender and heated through.
Garnish with cilantro, green onion, sesame seeds, and chili crisp. Serve with fresh lime wedges and enjoy immediately.
Notes
Adjust the amount of red curry paste based on your spice preference.
Full-fat coconut milk gives the broth the best rich and creamy texture.
Use your favorite frozen dumplings, including chicken, pork, shrimp, or vegetable varieties.
For a vegetarian version, use vegetable dumplings and replace fish sauce with extra soy sauce or a vegetarian alternative.
