The „One-Pan Red Curry Oven Dumplings“ recipe offers a simple, delicious alternative to traditional gyoza preparation. Instead of steaming or pan-frying, frozen dumplings are baked in an oven-safe dish with vegetables like bok choy and edamame, all submerged in a rich red curry sauce.
The sauce combines coconut milk, red curry paste, soy sauce, lemon juice, and honey. A crucial tip for perfect results is to brush the gyoza with a little oil before baking to prevent the edges from drying out. The dish is highly customizable; easily adjust vegetables and curry paste spice level. It’s an easy, one-pan weeknight meal, ready in under 20 minutes of baking.
Anyone who enjoys Asian cuisine has probably already eaten gyoza in one way or another. These little dumplings are often served steamed or pan-fried, but there is another way. For this One-Pan Red Curry Oven Dumplings, the gyoza are sitting in a delicious sauce alongside some veggies before heading into the oven. It’s a super simple and straightforward dish. We think this cooking method is a fantastic alternative to the traditional ones.

Cooking dumplings in sauce or soup isn’t exactly new, of course. However, the oven method was new to me personally. I saw it on TikTok a few months ago and tried the method immediately. That said, the preparation shown in the TikTok videos needed a slight tweak to improve the results.
In the »original« version, the dumplings were placed in the sauce and put straight into the oven. We did exactly that the first time, but unfortunately, the gyoza ended up a bit dry on top, particularly where the dumplings have those thin edges. Since we didn’t want to completely drown the dumplings in more sauce, the simplest fix was to brush them with a little oil before being baked. It worked perfectly.
Otherwise, preparing the gyoza is incredibly easy and can be customized however you like. You can easily adjust the sauce the dumplings cook in to suit your personal taste, for example. The same goes for the veggies added to the dish.
We like using bok choy and edamame, but plenty of other veggies work here well too. Bell peppers, broccoli, sweet potatoes, spinach, bean sprouts… there are plenty of great options. Just make sure the veggies you choose will soften up a bit during the time in the oven.

If you prefer things a little less spicy, pick a milder curry paste for this dish. There is quite a range of heat levels available. The mildest option is typically yellow curry paste. Red curry paste is a bit spicier, while the green version is often truly hot. If you’re unsure, start with yellow curry paste and »adjust« the heat later on by using crispy chili oil. It’s easy to control the spice level with that.
We used a cast-iron skillet for this recipe. It looks great visually. However, you can use all sorts of baking dishes. Anything oven-safe up to a temperature of at least 200°C (approx. 390°F) works fine. The key is selecting the right size: ideally, the dumplings should sit close together with very little empty space around them. This ensures the sauce you make with the recipe is sufficient. If you need to use a larger dish, you might want to prepare a bit more sauce. Adding a little extra coconut milk or water works fine.

You can use frozen dumplings from an Asian grocery store for these one-pan gyoza – that’s what we usually do. If you have more time, you could theoretically make your own gyoza. We have recipes on the blog for Gyoza with Pork & Napa Cabbage and also Vegan Gyoza with Mushrooms & Cabbage, for example. They freeze beautifully and can be used in recipes like this one here whenever you’re in the mood.
Another gyoza recipe we can recommend is our easy Coconut Curry Dumpling Soup. That soup served as the inspiration for this one-pan gyoza dish you could say. It’s basically just a different preparation method. The soup takes a little more effort to prepare, but it’s definitely worth it…
