Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 2 medium Carrots, peeled and sliced
- 2 pieces Celery stalks, sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 8 cups Vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 2 stalks Scallions, chopped
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt (for dumplings)
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for dumplings)
Instructions
In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, sliced carrots, and celery, cooking until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
Pour in the vegetable broth and add the soy sauce, salt, pepper, and thyme. Increase the heat to bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and add the frozen peas and chopped scallions. Let simmer while preparing the dumplings.
In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the unsweetened almond milk and 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
Using a spoon, carefully drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough into the simmering soup. Cover the pot and let the dumplings cook for 15 minutes. Avoid lifting the lid during this time to ensure fluffy dumplings.
After 15 minutes, check that the dumplings are cooked through and tender. Adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the soup hot, ladling dumplings and broth into each bowl. Enjoy your warm and comforting dairy-free dumpling soup!
