DIRECTIONS
1️⃣ Pour the stock in a pot and cover it with a lid. Bring it to a rolling boil on medium heat. Then add the Lucky Iron Fish/ Leaf and continue boiling for 10 more minutes. Remove the Fish/ Leaf and wash + dry it.
2️⃣ Add all the 'Broth' ingredients except for coconut milk and lime juice. ⠀
Also add any of the 'Optional' ingredients you wish to include. Let it all simmer for 2 minutes.
3️⃣ Add all the 'Toppings' ingredients except cilantro. Simmer till shrimp is pink + plump and the veggies are cooked down a little.
4️⃣ Reduce heat to medium-low. Now add coconut milk and lime juice. Simmer again for another 2 minutes.
5️⃣ Do a taste test and adjust as needed. Then turn off the heat and add the cilantro.
Voila! Your iron-infused Tom Yum soup is ready!
IF you happen to have any leftovers (highly unlikely 🤤), this makes for a fantastic lunch the next day too!
