2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 tablespoon fish sauce (or soy sauce)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 package (about 12 oz) frozen dumplings (e.g., gyoza, potstickers, or wontons)

Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Directions
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
Add the red curry paste, minced ginger, and minced garlic.
Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the mixture.
Pour in the coconut milk and chicken or vegetable broth.
Stir in the fish sauce (or soy sauce), brown sugar, and lime juice.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Add the frozen dumplings to the pot.
Cook according to the package instructions, typically until the dumplings float to the top.
Once the dumplings are cooked, gently stir in the fresh spinach leaves.
Allow the spinach to wilt, which should take about 1 minute.
Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with additional fish sauce or lime juice, if desired.
Ladle the soup into bowls.
