For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk. Adjust the amount of fish sauce, lime juice, and red pepper flakes to suit your personal taste. Feel free to add other vegetables such as bell peppers, bamboo shoots, or tomatoes. For a vegetarian option, substitute the shrimp with tofu or extra mushrooms.

01 Step
Recipe View Blanch the Shrimp: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Gently cook the shrimp until pink and just cooked through, about 1 minute. Immediately drain and set aside to prevent overcooking. (Time: 1 minute)
02 Step
Recipe View Infuse the Broth: In a large saucepan, combine coconut milk and water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add the galangal, lemongrass, and makrut lime leaves. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for 10 minutes to infuse the coconut milk with the aromatic flavors. (Time: 10 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Strain and Season: Strain the coconut milk through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean pan, discarding the solids (galangal, lemongrass, and lime leaves). Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms to the infused coconut milk and simmer for 5 minutes until tender. Stir in the lime juice, fish sauce, and brown sugar. Season to taste with curry powder, adjusting the amount to your preference. (Time: 5 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Combine and Serve: Gently reheat the blanched shrimp in the simmering soup until warmed through. Ladle the soup into serving bowls and garnish generously with thinly sliced green onion and a sprinkle of dried red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Serve immediately and enjoy! (Time: 2 minutes)
