INSTRUCTIONS

How to Make Vegetarian Dumplings Soup on Stove Top

  • Start off by warming up the oil in the soup pot or saucepan. Add onions, minced ginger and garlic. Sprinkle some salt. Sauté for 3 minutes till onions get golden brown.
  • Add the rest of the vegetables. Sauté further for 3 minutes until mushrooms start to brown.
  • Add Miso broth and mix well. Let it come to a boil on high heat.

How to Make Instant Pot Dumplings Soup

    • Start Instant Pot on Sauté Mode. Add oil. Once it displays hot, add onions, ginger and garlic. Sprinkle some salt and continue to sauté for 2 minutes until onions start to brown.
  • Add rest of the vegetables. Stir for few minutes. Add miso broth and frozen gyoza. Stir well. Cancel Sauté. Close the lid and vent to sealing. Choose 1 minute on high Pressure.
  • Once Instant Pot finishes cooking, let it release pressure naturally for 5 minutes. Then release leftover pressure by moving the valve to venting. Open the lid.

NOTES

This recipe makes a big batch, so you can freeze leftovers and reheat them for later. Store any leftover soup in the fridge for 3-4 days. You can reheat on the stovetop, stirring occasionally. Or, use microwave in 30 seconds intervals until heated through.

I love the frozen Thai Vegetable Gyoza from Trader Joe’s. You can also use wonton, pot stickers or dumplings.  Costco also sells a big bag of these, which can be used for several meals.

* A note about Miso Broth : I used miso broth for rich and complex umami flavors. If you are using just the vegetable broth, add ¼ cup soy sauce for additional flavor.
