1/2 teaspoon curry powder

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

For the Soup:

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon ginger, grated

2 tablespoons curry powder (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)

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.
