Steps:
- Trim the bottom of the lemon grass, and remove tough layers. Using a food processor or Japanese or French mandoline, slice the bottom 3 or 4 inches of the stalk tissue-thin.
- Bring the stock to a boil. Add lemon grass and sliced lime leaves, and boil one minute.
- Add the mushrooms, and simmer until mushrooms have softened, 2 or 3 minutes.
- Add the shrimp, chilies and fish sauce, and cook until shrimp are just done. (Do not overcook the shrimp.)
- Stir in the lime juice, tasting as you add. Serve, sprinkled with cilantro and the 4 whole lime leaves.

[email protected]This soup is a great way to use up leftover rice. I usually cook a big batch of rice on the weekend and then use it to make this soup during the week. It's a quick and easy meal that's also very healthy.

[email protected]I'm allergic to shrimp, so I used tofu in this soup instead. It turned out great! The tofu absorbed the flavors of the soup and it was just as delicious as the shrimp.
