Ingredients

Scale

Potstickers

  • Frozen or fresh potstickers (quantity as desired, typically 12-16 pieces)

Broth & Aromatics

  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Vegetables

  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced carrots (optional)
  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
  • 12 cups baby spinach or chopped bok choy
  • 2 green onions, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Broth: Heat chicken or vegetable broth in a large pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and freshly grated ginger, simmer gently for a few minutes to infuse the broth with fragrant warmth.
  2. Cook the Potstickers: Bring the broth to a gentle boil, carefully add frozen or fresh potstickers. Simmer for 5–7 minutes or until potstickers are fully cooked and tender, floating to the surface.
  3. Add Vegetables and Seasonings: Stir in thinly sliced carrots, mushrooms, and leafy greens like spinach or bok choy. Add soy sauce and a light drizzle of sesame oil to enhance flavor. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until vegetables are tender yet crisp.
  4. Final Touch and Serve: Remove the soup from heat and sprinkle with chopped green onions. Adjust seasoning with salt or soy sauce if needed. Ladle hot potsticker soup into bowls and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Use quality potstickers for best texture and flavor.
  • Keep broth at a simmer to avoid breaking dumplings.
  • Grate fresh ginger and mince garlic just before cooking for brightest flavors.
  • Customize vegetables to your preference for varied nutrition and taste.
  • Finish with a small drizzle of sesame oil to enhance aroma without overpowering the dish.
