Tom yam kung soup with shrimp Thai

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 45 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to cook Tom Yum Kung soup with Thai shrimp? Prepare all the necessary ingredients.

2. STEP 2

   

   Take pre-frozen shrimp and peel them. How to clean shrimp? First, tear off the head, then remove the shell with legs. Since the shrimp are small, the esophagus does not need to be removed.

3. STEP 3

   

   Next you need to prepare the vegetables. Peel the onion and cut into cubes. Wash the champignons, dry and cut into slices. Peel the garlic cloves and also cut into small slices. Rinse cherry tomatoes in running water, dry and cut into 4 parts.

4. STEP 4

   

   Take a small saucepan with a thick bottom, pour in vegetable oil and heat. Add onion cubes, garlic and cherry tomato slices and fry lightly for 3 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   After the time has passed, fill the contents of the pan with water and bring to a boil. When the water boils, add Tom Yum sauce to the broth and mix thoroughly.

6. STEP 6

   

   Next, add chopped champignons and peeled shrimp to the pan. Continue cooking the tom yum soup with shrimp and mushrooms until tender, about 4 minutes more. Cover the finished soup with a lid and set aside to let it steep for a while.

7. STEP 7

   

   At this time, prepare the tempura shrimp. To do this, take large shrimp, peel them: tear off the head, remove the shell with legs, leave the tail, and be sure to remove the intestinal tract, which is located along the entire back of the shrimp.

8. STEP 8

   

   Dry the peeled shrimp with paper towels, lightly salt and roll in flour.

9. STEP 9

   

   How to make shrimp batter? Beat a chicken egg into a bowl, beat it lightly with a fork, add milk and beat a little more with a fork until the products are combined. Wash the egg first in warm running water and soda, as there may be harmful bacteria on its surface.

10. STEP 10

    

    Dip the prepared shrimp, holding them by the tail, into the batter and then into the flakes.

11. STEP 11

    

    Next, dip the breaded shrimp into preheated deep fat and fry on both sides until golden brown. Transfer the fried shrimp to a plate lined with paper towels. This will remove excess oil.

12. STEP 12

    

    Rinse the cilantro under running water, dry and finely chop with a knife. If desired, you can take parsley or dill.

13. STEP 13

    

    Pour the still warm tom yam soup with shrimp prepared at home into deep bowls, add a small amount of lime juice, sprinkle with chopped cilantro, place tempera shrimp on top and serve. Bon appetit!
