- 1 can (14 ounces) coconut milk
- 4 cups vegetable broth

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

- Add the red curry paste to the pot and mix well, cooking for another minute.
- Pour in the coconut milk and vegetable broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Add the sliced carrots and diced bell pepper to the pot. Simmer for about 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

- While the soup simmers, prepare the dumplings. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the milk and melted butter, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling batter into the simmering soup. Cover the pot and cook for an additional 10 minutes, allowing the dumplings to steam and cook through.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of sriracha to the soup.
