Instant Pot Vegan Curry Chicken Soup

Print Recipe

This is a super easy Instant Pot Vegan Curry Chicken Soup with a spicy option. Serve over rice optional.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup of vegetable oil or other neutral oil with high smoke point
  • 1 leek stalk, both green and white parts thinly sliced into thin half moons and circles – ends discarded
  • 1 red bell pepper, roughly chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, crushed and roughly chopped
  • Inch of unpeeled ginger, roughly diced
  • 10 ounces of frozen mixed mushrooms
  • 2 cups of dehydrated soy curls
  • 1 cup of orochiette pasta
  • 4 stalks of baby bok choy, root end removed
  • 1.5 tablespoons of vegan bouillon mix
  • 1 tablespoon of curry powder
  • Water to fill instant pot

Instructions

  1. Turn Instant Pot on sauté mode. Add vegetable oil.
  2. Add the leeks, frozen mushrooms, chopped red bell pepper, ginger and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes.
  3. Turn off Instant Pot and add the soy curls, one cup of orochiette pasta and baby bok choy on top.
  4. Add water to fill to max line – half an inch lower than the max line as to not overfill. Do not overfill.
  5. Add the vegan bouillon mix and curry powder. Adjust to taste. Mix the contents to distribute the flavors.
  6. Cover instant pot with lid. Seal the instant pot fully and point the steam release handle to “sealing” mode.
  7. Pressure cook on high for 4 minutes. It will take time to build up the pressure (sometimes 20-30 minutes) so please be patient.
  8. If you want a spicy option, make your Chinese chili oil while the pressure builds in Instant Pot using this recipe. Store-bought chili oil is fine too.
  9. When soup is done cooking, carefully do a manual release and let the steam out. Watch out for the steam.
  10. Season to taste  with soy sauce or salt if needed.
  11. Serve with rice and drizzle chili oil on top.

Notes

  • When adding this to rice, the taste will obviously be diluted depending on the amount of rice. So season to taste when mixing with the rice.
