Thai Curry Soup image

This delicious Thai-style soup has coconut milk, shrimp, mushrooms, and spinach. Chicken may be substituted for the shrimp; either way, I love this soup anytime!

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 ounces rice noodles (pad thai noodles)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 ½ tablespoons minced lemon grass
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons red curry paste
1 (32 ounce) carton chicken broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 (13.5 ounce) can reduced-fat coconut milk
½ cup peeled and deveined medium shrimp
½ cup sliced mushrooms
1 (10 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
¼ cup chopped cilantro
2 green onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add rice noodles and cook until al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse well with cold water to stop the cooking; set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in garlic, lemon grass, and ginger; cook and stir until aromatic, 30 to 60 seconds. Add the curry paste, and cook 30 seconds more. Pour in about 1/2 cup of the chicken broth, and stir until the curry paste has dissolved, then pour in the remaining chicken stock along with the soy sauce and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
  • Stir in coconut milk, shrimp, mushrooms, spinach, lime juice, and cilantro. Increase heat to medium-high, and simmer until the shrimp turn pink and are no longer translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • To serve, place some rice noodles into each serving bowl and ladle soup on top of them. Garnish each bowl with a sprinkle of sliced green onion.

I was a bit hesitant to try this soup because I'm not usually a fan of spicy food. But I'm so glad I did! The soup was actually very mild, and the flavors were so delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This soup is delicious! I made it for my family last night and everyone loved it. The flavors were complex and well-balanced, and the soup was just the right amount of spicy. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this soup several times now and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and the flavor is amazing. I usually add some extra vegetables, like carrots and celery, to make it even more filling.
