Instructions
- Chop the onion. Fry with a generous tablespoon of coconut oil.
- Press the garlic. Cut the red pepper into thin (half) rings. Reserve some red pepper to garnish. Cut the spring onion into pieces, keep the dark green part aside.
- When the onions are translucent, add the garlic, spring onion and red pepper. Mix.
- Grate the ginger and galangal. If they are very stringy, you can also cut them into slices and remove them later.
- Wash the lime well and zest. Add the ginger, the galangal and the lemon zest.
- Add the dry spices and tomato puree. Then add the stock, coconut milk and coconut amino's.
- Squeeze the lime and add the juice.
- Cut the sereh in half lengthwise, but leave the base intact. This way you can easily get it out again later.
- If you use them, now also add the kaffir lime leaves.
- In the meantime, cut the mushrooms and shiitake into slightly thicker slices than how you want them to turn out after frying. They will shrink. I usually get 4 slices from a slightly smaller chestnut mushroom and 5 from a slightly larger one.
- I prefer to fry the mushrooms and shiitake in a separate pan. On high heat and with a large spoonful of oil. Let them brown quite a bit. Then they will get a nice caramelized taste and lose less moisture. If you don't have that space, fry the mushrooms in the soup pan with the onion.
- You can puree the soup before adding the mushrooms. Then you get a smooth, creamy soup. I personally like some bite, so I keep it that way.
- Add the mushrooms.
- Take the lime leaves and lemongrass out. Pour into bowls and garnish with a handful of fresh coriander and rings of red pepper.
