Инструкции
- Peel shrimp, reserving shells, and both devein and continue slicing lengthwise, pounding flat - then set aside.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan, then fry the shrimp shells in it till they turn pink. Pour in chicken stock and bring to a boil, then reduce and let simmer. Cut the lemon grass stalks in pcs - reserving the bottom 5 inches - then bruise the pcs with a few heavy hits, then toss them into the soup.
- Cut the reserved lemon grass into thin pcs, then either toss into a blender or possibly lb. with the garlic, the cilantro stems, the chilies, and and lime zest and leaves, and white pepper. Stir into the soup, bring to a boil, then reduce and simmer for 20 min.
- When the stock is done, pour through a sieve, return to the saucepan, and reheat. When soup is at a boil, add in shrimp and mushrooms and cook for 2 to 3 min, till the shrimp are pink. Reduce heat, add in lime juice and fish sauce, and taste for seasoning.
- When ready to serve, stir in slivered chilies and cilantro leaves, then ladle into bowls.
- Serve to 4, all at once with rice and any number of other dishes. In a way, it serves as a beverage to the whole meal, served, as it traditionally is, all together.
- Comments: This Thai soup is wonderful - warm and sour and piquant, an outstanding combination of rich, chewy shrimp - slippery mushroom - and the foresty green of just cooked cilantro fronds in a complex broth.
