- Sauté the Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onion, red bell pepper, and sweet potato. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3–4 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
- Build the Broth: Stir in the red curry paste and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the coconut milk and vegetable stock, whisking to combine.
- Cook the Potstickers: Bring the mixture to a boil, then add the potstickers. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 6–8 minutes, or until the soup is slightly thickened and the potstickers are cooked through.
- Add Spinach and Lime: Stir in the fresh spinach and lime juice. Cook for 1–2 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted.
- Garnish and Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve immediately and enjoy!
 
	 
	
		Notes
		
			
- Use vegetarian potstickers to keep this recipe vegetarian; meat-filled potstickers will add extra protein and flavor.
- If you prefer a spicier soup, add extra red curry paste or a few chili flakes to taste.
- Make sure not to overcook the potstickers to prevent them from becoming mushy.
- This soup stores well for up to 2 days in the refrigerator, but add the spinach fresh before serving when reheating.
- For a gluten-free version, check that the potstickers are gluten-free or substitute with rice dumplings.
