Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp curry paste (red, green, or yellow)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ginger, grated
  • 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp hot oil (chili oil or neutral oil)
  • 150 g noodles (cellophane, ramen, udon, or soba)
  • 2 heads bok choy, halved or chopped
  • 8-10 gyoza dumplings, fresh or frozen
  • Reserved noodle cooking water
  • Optional toppings:
  • 30 g scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp chili oil or chili crisp
  • Lime wedges
  • Seaweed sheets (nori)

Method
 

  1. Prepare the flavor base by combining curry paste, garlic, ginger, parsley, tahini, and soy sauce in a large heatproof bowl.
  2. Heat the hot oil in a small pan until shimmering, then carefully pour over the flavor base mixture. Stir well until smooth and aromatic.
  3. Boil noodles in a large pot according to package instructions.
  4. Add bok choy to the noodles during the last 2 minutes to blanch.
  5. Remove noodles and bok choy using tongs or a slotted spoon; reserve the cooking water.
  6. Cook the gyoza dumplings in the same boiling water or a separate pot for 5–7 minutes or according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  7. Gradually whisk the reserved noodle cooking water into the flavor base to create a rich broth. Adjust seasoning with salt or chili flakes as desired.
  8. Divide noodles, bok choy, and gyoza among serving bowls.
  9. Pour the broth over the ingredients.
  10. Garnish with scallions, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of chili oil or chili crisp.
  11. Serve with lime wedges and nori sheets if desired.
  12. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, try using different types of curry paste or adding more chili oil for a spicier soup. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently on the stove.
