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
- 1 bag (16 ounces) refrigerated or frozen dumplings (use your favorite kind)
Garnish
- Sliced green onion, for topping
- Chili oil crunch, for topping
- Cilantro, for topping
- Sesame seeds, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the dumplings evenly.
- Prepare the Sauce: In a 9×13-inch baking dish, combine coconut milk, red curry paste, minced garlic, low-sodium soy sauce, and ground ginger. Whisk thoroughly until the sauce is smooth and well blended.
- Arrange the Dumplings: Evenly place the refrigerated or frozen dumplings over the surface of the sauce in the baking dish. Spoon some of the sauce over the top of the dumplings to keep them moist and flavorful during baking.
- Bake: Place the uncovered baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. The dumplings should turn golden and the sauce will be bubbly. If using frozen dumplings, extend the baking time by a few minutes until fully cooked through.
- Garnish and Serve: Carefully remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle sliced green onions, chili oil crunch, fresh cilantro, and sesame seeds over the dumplings. Serve warm and enjoy this delicious one-pan meal!
Notes
- If using frozen dumplings, add a few extra minutes to the baking time to ensure they are fully cooked.
- You can swap the red curry paste for green curry paste for a different flavor profile.
- Adjust the chili oil crunch amount based on your preferred spice level.
- Serve with steamed rice or a side of sautéed greens for a complete meal.
