Notes

  • Adjust the amount of garlic, ginger, and curry paste to suit your taste. If you want more spice, add more of each.
  • A little sriracha drizzled on top would also be a yummy way to add some heat.
  • Don't add the wontons directly to the soup broth in the pot because they will suck up all the moisture and sort of fall apart.
