One Pan Baked Dumplings
These viral baked dumplings from TikTok are the ultimate easy dinner hack! Crispy dumplings are baked in a creamy coconut curry sauce and topped with cilantro, chili crunch oil, and sesame seed.
Ingredients
- 14-20 Frozen Dumplings *
- 3 Tablespoons Red Curry Paste
- 3 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
- 2 Tablespoons Sesame Oil (or oil, of choice)
- (1) 14-ounce can Coconut Milk
- 2 teaspoons Fresh Ginger * (minced, see notes)
- 2 Garlic Cloves * (minced)
- 1 Tablespoon Rice Vinegar
- 2 Tablespoons Honey (or real maple syrup)
Garnish
- Cilantro
- 2 Green Onions (sliced)
- 1 to 2 Tablespoons Chili Crunch
- Sesame Seeds
- Baby Spinach (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease a medium baking dish or ovenproof skillet.
- In a bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, red curry paste, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic. Taste and adjust — add more soy sauce for saltiness, rice vinegar for brightness, or curry paste for spice.
- Place frozen dumplings in a single layer in the baking dish. Pour the sauce evenly over the top, making sure the dumplings are mostly covered.
- Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 5-10 minutes, until the sauce is bubbling and dumplings are tender.
- If using baby spinach, immediately top with fresh spinach so it wilts slightly in the heat. Garnish generously with cilantro, sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and chili crisp.
Notes
- I used the frozen dumplings from Trader Joe’s. You can find frozen dumplings at any local grocery store.
- If using dried ginger, use 1 teaspoon.
- Use fresh minced garlic or the frozen garlic cubes (from Trader Joe’s)
