Ingredients
Steps
Simmer the stock with the shrimp shells for 10 minutes, then strain them out.
Add the lemongrass, galangal, and lime leaves and simmer 5 minutes.
Add the mushrooms and chili paste and cook 3 minutes, then the shrimp for 2 minutes.
Off the heat, season with fish sauce, lime juice, and chiles, and finish with cilantro.
Lime juice goes in off the heat or it turns bitter.
