Ingredients
Scale
Soup Dumplings
- 8-10 frozen soup dumplings
Sauce
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp gochujang
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup water
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Garnish
- Parmesan cheese, grated
- Chopped chives or sage (optional)
Instructions
- Melt Butter and Sauté Garlic: In a pot, melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
- Add Sauce Ingredients and Simmer: Pour in the heavy cream, water, and gochujang. Stir well to combine all ingredients thoroughly. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer to blend the flavors.
- Cook Soup Dumplings: Gently add the frozen soup dumplings to the simmering sauce, spacing them out evenly to avoid sticking together. Cover the pot with a lid and cook for about 12 minutes, or until the dumplings are fully cooked through.
- Finish and Garnish: Once cooked, remove the lid and turn off the heat. Sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese generously over the dumplings. Garnish with chopped chives or sage if desired. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy this creamy, spicy delight.
Notes
- Make sure the dumplings are spaced out in the pot to prevent them from sticking together during cooking.
- Adjust the amount of gochujang based on your spice preference.
- For a lighter option, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or a dairy-free alternative.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, simmer the sauce a few additional minutes before adding dumplings.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the dumplings at their best texture and flavor.
