Main Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen potstickers (or gyoza)
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 cup baby spinach

Instructions
- Heat the Sesame Oil: In a large pot, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Prepare the Broth: Add the chicken or vegetable broth to the pot and bring to a boil.
- Cook the Potstickers: Add the frozen potstickers to the boiling broth and cook according to package instructions (about 5–7 minutes). Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Add the Vegetables: Once the potstickers are cooked, stir in the sliced mushrooms and simmer for about 3 minutes until tender.

- Season: Add soy sauce to taste, adjusting for saltiness.
- Serve: Serve the soup hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Use chicken broth for a richer flavor, or vegetable broth to keep it vegetarian.
- You can substitute potstickers with homemade dumplings if desired.
- Adjust soy sauce carefully for saltiness to suit your taste or dietary needs.
- Add chili flakes or a dash of sesame seeds for added texture and flavor.
