Ingredients
  

1 lb fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined

1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk

2 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 cup mushrooms, sliced

1-2 teaspoons red curry paste (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon fish sauce

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 teaspoon brown sugar

1-2 fresh Thai bird chilies, sliced (adjust to heat preference)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

    Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced red bell pepper. Cook for another 3 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

      Add the sliced mushrooms to the pot, cooking for another 2 minutes until they begin to soften.

        Stir in the red curry paste, allowing it to cook for about 1 minute to enhance the flavors.

          Pour in the coconut milk and chicken (or vegetable) broth. Stir well to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.

            Add the fish sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, and sliced Thai chilies. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

              Gently add the shrimp to the pot, cooking for 3-4 minutes or until they turn pink and opaque. Be careful not to overcook!

                Remove the pot from heat. Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty kick.
