Step 1
In a large pot, bring 6 cups water to a boil over high heat. Add 2 tbsp soy sauce and 2 minced garlic cloves, stirring to combine.
Step 2
Add 8 oz fish cake sheets and 8 frozen dumplings to the pot. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to medium.
Step 3
Simmer until dumplings are cooked through and fish cakes are tender, about 10 minutes. The dumplings should float and look plump.
Step 4
Slice 2 green onions into 1-inch pieces and add to the soup. Cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Serve hot, using tongs to lift out fish cakes and dumplings into bowls, then ladle broth over the top.
