Ingredients
  

For the Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Butter Adds richness and flavor; consider olive oil for a dairy-free option.
  • 2 cloves Minced Garlic Provides aromatic flavor; fresh garlic yields the best results.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Creates a creamy texture; half-and-half works as a lighter alternative.
  • 2 tablespoons Gochujang The primary flavor agent, offering spice and depth; substitute with a milder chili paste if you prefer less heat.
  • 1 cup Water Used to thin the sauce; adjust according to your desired thickness.
For the Dumplings
  • 12 pieces Frozen Soup Dumplings The star of the dish; ensure they’re well-packed to maintain their shape while cooking.
For the Finish
  • 1/2 cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese Adds a salty, umami finish; use nutritional yeast for a vegan option.
  • to taste Sage or Chopped Chives For garnish and extra flavor; feel free to use fresh herbs like cilantro for a twist.

Equipment

  • Medium Pot

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Melt the Butter: Begin by melting 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium pot over medium-high heat. As it gently sizzles, enjoy the rich aroma filling your kitchen.
  2. Sauté the Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently until fragrant.
  3. Create the Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream, followed by a splash of water and 2 tablespoons of gochujang. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  4. Add the Dumplings: Carefully place the frozen soup dumplings into the simmering sauce, ensuring they are spaced apart to prevent sticking. Cover the pot with a lid.
  5. Cook the Dumplings: Let the dumplings steam in the covered pot for about 12 minutes. The dumplings should become tender and cooked all the way to the center.
  6. Finish the Sauce: Once the dumplings are cooked, sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese over the top, allowing it to melt slightly into the creamy sauce.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Finally, garnish your dish with fresh sage or chopped chives and serve hot.
