Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 3 green onions, sliced (white and green parts separated)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
- 6 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup chopped baby bok choy or spinach
- 1 package (12 oz) frozen vegetable potstickers or dumplings (halal/vegetarian-friendly)
- 1 tsp chili oil or sriracha (optional, for spice)
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Heat sesame oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the white parts of the green onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Pour in vegetable broth, soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add mushrooms, carrots, and bok choy. Simmer for 5 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.

- Ladle into bowls and top with sesame seeds, cilantro, and the green parts of the onions. Serve warm.
Notes
- Make it gluten-free by choosing gluten-free potstickers or tamari instead of soy sauce.
- Use vegetable broth for a lighter, plant-based base.
- To spice it up, add chili oil or extra sriracha to taste.
- Leftovers refrigerate well for 2-3 days; reheat on the stovetop.
- Vegetarian/halal-friendly with appropriate dumplings.
