Instructions

Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about one minute until fragrant.
Pour in the broth and soy sauce, and if you’re using it, a splash of rice vinegar. Let the broth simmer for 5-10 minutes to develop flavors.
Add the frozen potstickers to the simmering broth and cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing them to absorb the broth’s flavors.
If using, add mushrooms or spinach during the last few minutes of cooking to ensure they are tender but vibrant.
Season the soup with salt, pepper, and chili oil or red pepper flakes for extra spice. Stir well and remove from heat.
Ladle the soup into bowls, ensuring each bowl has a balanced amount of broth, potstickers, and vegetables. Garnish with fresh green onions and drizzle with sesame oil if desired.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, use vegetable broth and vegetarian potstickers.
If you like extra heat, add more chili oil or red pepper flakes.
Additional vegetables like bok choy, cabbage, or carrots can be added for extra texture and nutrients.
Store leftover soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove with a splash of broth or water if necessary.
To make the broth richer, add a tablespoon of miso paste.
For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free soy sauce and gluten-free potstickers.
For more protein, consider adding cooked tofu or shrimp.
Frozen vegetables can be used as a substitute for fresh vegetables.
