Instructions

1. Preheat the oven
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it's ready by the time you're done prepping.
2. Mix the curry base
In an oven-safe dish (about 9x9 inches or a 3.5-quart braiser), pour in the coconut milk. Add the red curry paste, minced garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and agave syrup. Whisk everything together until the mixture is smooth and the curry paste is fully incorporated.
3. Add the vegetables
Stir in the bok choy, sliced bell pepper, and broccoli florets, making sure they’re evenly coated in the curry sauce and spread out in the dish.
4. Place the dumplings
Arrange your frozen dumplings directly over the veggie mixture. Spoon a little of the curry sauce over each dumpling to keep them moist while baking. Sprinkle the top with sesame seeds.
5. Bake covered
Cover the dish with a lid or a layer of foil to trap the steam. Place it in the oven and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the dumplings are fully cooked and the vegetables are tender
6. Finish and serve
Remove the dish from the oven. Garnish with a generous spoonful of chili crisp, chopped spring onions, and extra sesame seeds. Serve hot and enjoy the cozy flavors!
