Ingredients
Scale
Soup Base
- 1 tablespoon chilli oil
- 2 spring onions, thinly sliced (separate whites and greens)
- 20 g fresh ginger, grated
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 500 ml vegetable stock
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Vegetables and Gyoza
- 5 vegetable gyozas
- ½ to 1 bulb pak choi, sliced
- ½ courgette, spiralised
Instructions
- Prepare the soup base: Heat the chilli oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add the white parts of the spring onions along with a pinch of salt, and cook gently for 2 minutes to soften and release flavors.
- Add aromatics: Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1 minute to build depth in the broth.
- Combine main ingredients: Pour in the vegetable stock and soy sauce, then add the vegetable gyozas, sliced pak choi, and spiralised courgette to the saucepan.
- Simmer the soup: Stir gently, cover the pan, and let the soup simmer on low heat for 7 minutes, allowing the gyozas to cook through and the vegetables to soften.
- Finish and serve: Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with the green parts of the spring onions and a sprinkle of chilli flakes if desired for extra heat.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of chilli oil based on your heat preference.
- Spiralised courgette can be swapped with thinly sliced carrots or mushrooms for variation.
- For a protein boost, add tofu or cooked chicken if not vegetarian.
- The soup is best enjoyed fresh but can be refrigerated and gently reheated within 24 hours.
