Tom Kha Goong Soup (Thai Coconut Shrimp Soup)

2 tablespoon coconut oil

½ sweet Vidalia onion finely chopped

3 large garlic cloves minced

6 slices galangal This ingredient can be hard to find. I often swap with a 1" piece of peeled ginger with delicious results. However, it does change the flavor profile a bit from traditional Tom Kha.

2 tablespoon lemongrass paste

2 tablespoon red curry paste

2 cups chicken stock or chicken broth

2 cups canned coconut milk use full-fat not light

8 oz button mushrooms sliced

1 tablespoon fish sauce

4 tablespoon fresh lime juice about 2 large limes juiced

2 tablespoon brown sugar

3 stems cilantro

1 lb raw shrimp peeled and deveined. You can also use 1 lb of thinly sliced boneless chicken breast. *see notes

Optional garnishes: chopped green onions, lime wedges, additional chopped cilantro, and chili oil for drizzling
