Prep

Step 1. Bring Jasmine Rice, Water and Salt to a boil in a covered saucepan. Reduce to low and cook until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep covered.
Step 2. Meanwhile, bring Chicken Broth, Lemongrass, Galangal, Makrut Lime Leaves and Fresh Chili to a boil in a large pot. Reduce the heat and simmer until fragrant, about 10 minutes.
Step 3. Add Mushroom, Tomato and Fish Sauce to the broth. Simmer over medium heat until the mushrooms are tender and the tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes.
Step 4. Add Shrimp and simmer gently until pink and opaque throughout, about 3 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat.
Step 5. Stir in the juice of Lime and taste the broth. Remove the lemongrass, galangal, lime leaves and chilies, or let everyone know to leave them in their bowls.

Tips

Swap it

Use sliced ginger if galangal is unavailable; the broth will have a different but still fragrant flavor.

Good to know

Add lime juice off the heat to keep its flavor bright, and taste before adding extra fish sauce.

Leftovers

Cool the soup and rice promptly in separate shallow containers, refrigerate for up to 3 days, and reheat until steaming.
