1 stalk lemon grass, tender inner part only, roughly chopped
Juice of half a lime
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 small red Thai chili, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 ounces enoki mushrooms, trimmed, or 1 cup button mushrooms, sliced
8 ounces raw shrimp, peeled
2 scallions, cut into short lengths and then into strips
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

In a medium saucepan, combine chicken stock, tom yum paste, kaffir lime leaves, lemon grass, lime juice and fish sauce. Add chili and sugar, and stir.
Place over high heat to bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium low. Add mushrooms, and simmer 1 to 2 minutes. Add shrimp and scallions, and simmer until shrimp is barely opaque, 2 to 3 more minutes.

A bit too spicy for me, but overall a great recipe. I'll definitely try it again with less chili paste.

This recipe was easy to follow and the soup turned out great. I used a store-bought Tom Yum paste, which made it even easier. Will definitely make this again when I'm craving something spicy and sour.
