Method
 

Steps to Make Soup
  1. Begin by rinsing all your seafood thoroughly. Chop any vegetables and organize your ingredients to streamline the cooking process.
  2. In a large pot set over medium heat, drizzle a bit of oil. Sauté the minced garlic and grated ginger until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  3. Pour in the vegetable broth along with the creamy coconut milk. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  4. Add the fish fillets, shrimp, and your chosen shellfish to the pot. Cook together until tender, about 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in the chili paste and squeeze in fresh lime juice. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls and consider garnishing with fresh herbs. Serve hot with crusty bread or jasmine rice.

Notes

For best flavor, consume this soup fresh, but it still satisfies even after storing. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for 2 months.
