Coconut Curry Soup With Shrimp Recipes

THAI COCONUT CURRY SOUP WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Cook rice according to package directions - usually 2 cups jasmine rice to 3 cups water.
• In a large stock pot, melt butter and olive oil, and saute onions on high heat until slightly softened with hint of brown.
• Add salt and pepper to taste and continue to saute.
• Add yellow pepper and garlic and saute for just a minute - make sure garlic doesn't brown or it will be bitter.
• Add 2 ounces (½ can) of curry paste and stir over high heat for a minute or two.
• Add tomatoes, lime juice, coconut milk, coconut cream, and chicken broth; mix well.
• Bring to a gentle boil and add raw shrimp. (I used frozen shrimp and added it frozen to the soup without thawing to keep it as fresh as possible.).
• Once shrimp turns opaque serve right away or ladle into slow cooker and bring to your next soup party or potluck.
• Can be garnished with cilantro if you like.

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. Stir in the lime juice; season with salt; garnish with cilantro.
