This cozy 15 minute Miso Dumpling Soup was one of my first recipes to ever go viral on Instagram. I had so many comments about how delicious the broth was AND it was super simple to make. To this day, this recipe still is one of my most popular. The miso broth pairs perfectly with crispy-chewy vegetable dumplings to make a satisfying meal in just 15 minutes.

Ingredients

1 lb frozen dumplings (vegetable, I used Trader Joe's brand)
2 tbsp sesame oil
4 cloves minced garlic
2 tsp minced ginger
1 tbsp white miso paste*
1 tsp chili oil
1/3 cup diced green onion (plus more for topping)
4 cup vegetable broth (low sodium)
1 cup julienne carrots
Large handful spinach
Optional toppings: more green onion, chili oil, sesame seeds, soy sauce (if you want it saltier)

Instructions

In a large pan or pot begin heating your sesame oil over medium heat. Add in minced garlic and ginger and cook for a few minutes.
Add in chili oil, miso paste, diced green onion. Stir and let cook for another minute. Miso paste will still be a little thick and will dissolve fully in broth.
Add in potstickers and pan fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are slightly browned and coated in the garlic onion mixture.
Add in vegetable broth, carrots, and spinach. Bring to boil for only 2 minutes then remove from heat. (DON’T OVERCOOK POTSTICKERS OR THEY WILL BECOME MUSHY).
Top individual soup with more green onion, chili oil, and/or sesame seeds. You can also add more soy sauce if you like it saltier.

Notes

The number of servings for this recipe depends how hungry you are! My husband and I together ate the whole thing but you may be able to have this as 4 servings depending on your appetite.

Miso paste is often found in the refrigerated section of your grocery store and is usually found near tofu.
