Ingredients

  • 12–16 gyoza (frozen or homemade)
  • 6 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 2 cups Napa cabbage or baby bok choy, chopped
  • 1 carrot, julienned or thinly sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms (shiitake or button), sliced
  • Optional: chili oil, white pepper, miso paste for added flavor

Instructions

  1. Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  2. Add broth and soy sauce; bring to a simmer.
  3. Stir in carrots, mushrooms, and cabbage. Cook for 3–4 minutes until slightly tender.
  4. Gently add gyoza and simmer according to package directions, usually 5–7 minutes, until cooked through.
  5. Taste broth and adjust with more soy sauce or a splash of chili oil if desired.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with green onions and a drizzle of sesame or chili oil.

Notes

  • Add cooked noodles for a heartier dish.
  • Stir in a beaten egg at the end for an egg-drop soup texture.
  • Miso paste or rice vinegar can deepen the broth’s flavor.
  • Use vegetable broth and vegetarian gyoza for a meat-free version.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days; reheat gently to avoid overcooking gyoza.
