Instructions
 

Prepare the Dumplings:

    - In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, curry powder, and vegetable oil. Gradually add water while mixing until a dough forms.

      - Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 20 minutes.

        - Once rested, roll the dough out thinly and cut into small circles (about 2 inches in diameter).

          Make the Dumpling Filling (Optional):

            - If you'd like a filling, you can blend or mix finely chopped vegetables (like cabbage, mushrooms, and carrots) with a pinch of salt and curry powder.

              - Place a teaspoon of the filling in the center of each dough circle, fold over, and pinch to seal.

                Cook the Soup:

                  - In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent (about 5 minutes).

                    - Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

                      - Add the curry powder and turmeric, stirring well to combine and allow the spices to toast for about 2 minutes.

                        - Pour in the vegetable broth and coconut milk, bring to a simmer. Add the sliced carrots and bell pepper, cooking for about 5 minutes until slightly tender.

                          Add the Dumplings:

                            - Carefully drop the dumplings into the simmering soup. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dumplings are fully cooked and float to the surface.

                              Add Vegetables:

                                - Stir in the snow peas and let them cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until bright and tender-crisp.

                                  Season:

                                    - Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

                                      Serve:

                                        - Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh cilantro or green onions, and serve with lime wedges on the side for a zesty finish.
