Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, minced ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, red curry paste, coconut milk, and water. Whisk everything together until well blended and set aside.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a splash of oil if desired. Once hot, add the chopped bok choy and sauté for about 3-5 minutes, or until it begins to wilt but retains its crispness.
  3. Place the frozen dumplings evenly over the greens in the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
  4. Carefully pour the prepared sauce over the dumplings and bok choy, allowing it to cover everything well.
  5. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes over medium heat.
  6. Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with chopped cilantro, sliced green onions, and sesame seeds.
