Ingredients

Scale

4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth

1 stalk of lemongrass, smashed and cut into 2-inch pieces

3–4 slices of galangal or ginger

5 kaffir lime leaves, torn

3–4 Thai bird’s eye chilies, smashed

200 grams of shrimp, peeled and deveined

200 grams of mushrooms, sliced

1 medium tomato, quartered

1 small onion, sliced

2 tablespoons of fish sauce

1 tablespoon of lime juice

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Green onions for garnish

Instructions

Prep Your Ingredients: Start by getting all your ingredients washed and sliced. Trust me, it makes the cooking process feel smooth and organized!

Make the Broth Base: In a medium pot, bring the chicken or vegetable broth to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Toss in the smashed lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, and bird’s eye chilies. Let this simmer for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes fragrant.

Add the Veggies: Stir in the sliced mushrooms, onion, and quartered tomatoes. Allow them to cook for another 3-4 minutes, letting the flavors mingle and deepen.

Time for Proteins: Add the shrimp (or your chosen protein) to the pot, cooking until they turn pink and opaque—usually just a couple of minutes!

Season Spectacularly: Pour in the fish sauce and lime juice, taste, and adjust according to your flavor preferences. This part is where things get fun—add more lime if you love tanginess or a little extra fish sauce if you want deeper umami!

Garnish & Serve: Scoop the soup into bowls and top it with fresh cilantro and green onions. Grab a spoon and get ready for that first soul-warming taste!
