Ingredients
1–2 tsp chilli oil
2–3 spring onions, thinly sliced (white and green parts separated)
5–6 frozen vegetable gyozas
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
2–3 baby bok choy (pak choi), chopped
½ courgette (zucchini), spiralised or thinly sliced
500 ml vegetable stock
1 tbsp soy sauce
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: chilli flakes for garnish
Instructions
Heat chilli oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add the white parts of the spring onions with a pinch of salt and fry briefly.
Add frozen gyozas and fry for 1–2 minutes until slightly golden.
Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger; cook for another minute.
Pour in vegetable stock and soy sauce. Add chopped pak choi and courgette.
Stir, cover, and simmer for about 7 minutes or until vegetables are tender and gyozas are cooked through.
Serve hot, garnished with green spring onions and a sprinkle of chilli flakes if desired.
Notes
Substitute spiralised courgette with thin slices if preferred.
For a heartier meal, add noodles or thinly sliced protein like chicken or tofu.
Store leftovers by separating broth from gyozas to avoid sogginess.
Gluten-free gyozas are available—check labels if needed.
