Add the curry paste and fry for a minute in a large pot set over medium heat. Then, add two tablespoons of cooking oil. Add the ginger and garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the coconut milk and chicken broth and bring the broth to a simmer. Add the sugar and fish sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Boil the wontons separately, according to package directions. Add the sliced baby bok choy to the boiling water for the last minute of cooking time.
Divide cooked wontons and greens into individual bowls and ladle the hot broth on top.
Garnish with basil leaves, sliced green onion, and chili crisp if using. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing, if desired.
