Ingredients
Scale
Soup Base
- 1 tbsp chilli oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 20 g ginger, finely grated
- 500 ml vegetable stock
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Vegetables
- 2 spring onions, thinly sliced (separate white and green parts)
- ½ – 1 bulb pak choi, sliced into chunks
- ½ courgette, spiralised
Protein
- 5 vegetable gyozas
Instructions
- Heat chili oil and sauté onions: In a medium-sized saucepan, add the chili oil and place over low heat. Add half of the thinly sliced spring onion (the whiter, more tender part) along with a pinch of salt. Fry gently for a couple of minutes until fragrant.
- Add garlic and ginger: Add the minced garlic and finely grated ginger to the pan and continue to fry for about one minute, allowing the flavors to meld and become aromatic.
- Add remaining ingredients and simmer: Pour in the vegetable stock and add the soy sauce. Then add the vegetable gyozas, pak choi chunks, and spiralised courgette. Stir everything gently to combine. Cover the pan with a lid and let simmer for around 7 minutes to allow the gyozas to cook through and the vegetables to soften.
- Finish and serve: Remove from heat and ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with the remaining sliced spring onion (the green parts) and a sprinkle of chili flakes if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your comforting gyoza soup.
Notes
- Adjust the pak choi quantity based on preference — it adds great texture and nutrients.
- You can replace vegetable gyozas with meat or seafood gyozas if preferred.
- If you prefer a milder spice level, reduce or omit the chili oil and chili flakes.
- For additional protein, add tofu cubes or shredded chicken.
- Leftover soup can be refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
