Miso Soup with Sweet Potato Dumplings
Ingredients
- 1 pound sweet potatoes
-
1 tablespoon canola oil
-
2 cloves garlic, chopped
-
1 shallot, chopped
-
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
-
4 cups sliced bok choy
-
1 cup bean sprouts
-
1 cup edamame, shelled
-
12 wonton wrappers
-
3 tablespoons white miso, plus more to taste
-
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Directions
Heat oven to 375°F. Prick
holes in potatoes. Bake on a baking sheet until soft, turning once, about 1
hour. Cool, then peel and mash. Heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat.
Cook garlic and shallot, stirring, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add pepper
flakes. Stir garlic mixture, salt and pepper into potatoes. Place bok choy,
sprouts and edamame in a pot with 2 cups water and set aside. Lay 1 wonton
wrapper in palm of hand. Drop a heaping tablespoon of potato mixture in the
center and make a fist to gather edges. Repeat with remaining wrappers and
filling. Set dumplings on top of vegetables in pot. Bring to a boil. Cook,
covered, until wrappers are translucent, 3 to 6 minutes. Divide veggies and
dumplings among 4 bowls. Add 4 cups water to pot. Bring to a boil. Remove from
heat. Add miso, stirring until it dissolves. Divide among bowls; top with
scallions.
