Thai Coconut Milk Soup With Prawns Recipes

Steps:

• In a small saucepan set over medium-high heat, heat the vegetable oil until shimmering. Add the garlic, ginger, lemongrass and shallot. Saute until fragrant, about one minute. Add the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Add the kaffir lime leaves and water, and return the soup to a simmer. Add fish sauce to taste.
• To the saucepan, add the palm sugar, and let the soup gently simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the dried chili and stir to combine. Simmer the soup for about 10 minutes, to blend the flavors.
• Remove the heads from the prawns and squeeze the roe into the soup. Discard the heads. Peel and slice the shrimp and add to the soup. Simmer gently for a minute, until the shrimp are barely cooked through. Add the long or green beans, tofu, and mushrooms to the soup. Remove the soup from the heat and finish with a squeeze of lime juice. Pour the soup into a deep bowl, removing the kaffir lime leaves. Garnish with cilantro and chili oil. Serve immediately.

Steps:

Slowly pour the chicken broth over the mixture, stirring continually. Stir in the fish sauce and brown sugar; simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk and mushrooms; cook and stir until the mushrooms are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp; cook until no longer translucent about 5 minutes.
