Ingredients
Scale
Sauce Ingredients
- 1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk
- 2 Tablespoons red curry paste
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
Dumplings & Garnishes
- 1 bag (16 ounces) refrigerated or frozen dumplings (use your favorite kind)
- Sliced green onion (to taste)
- Chili oil crunch (to taste)
- Cilantro (to taste)
- Sesame seeds (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375 degrees F to prepare for baking the dumplings.
- Make the sauce: In a 9×13-inch baking dish, whisk together the coconut milk, red curry paste, minced garlic, soy sauce, and ground ginger until fully combined, creating a flavorful base.
- Arrange dumplings: Evenly place the refrigerated or frozen dumplings over the sauce in the baking dish. Spoon some of the sauce over the top of the dumplings to keep them moist and flavorful.
- Bake: Place the dish uncovered in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the dumplings turn golden brown and the sauce is bubbly. If using frozen dumplings, extend baking time by a few minutes to ensure they are fully cooked.
- Garnish and serve: Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven. Sprinkle sliced green onions, chili oil crunch, cilantro, and sesame seeds over the dumplings. Serve warm and enjoy this delicious one-pan meal.
Notes
- If using frozen dumplings, increase baking time slightly to ensure thorough cooking.
- Feel free to substitute dumplings with your preferred variety, such as vegetable, chicken, or pork-filled.
- Adjust the amount of red curry paste depending on your spice preference.
- Chili oil crunch adds a spicy, crunchy texture; omit if you prefer a milder dish.
- Use a 9×13-inch baking dish for even cooking and sauce distribution.
