Recipes/ Soup

fire-pot soup

Over the weekend, Adam and I took a short trip up to Mendocino, a seaside Victorian village about two hours north.

And when I say “village”, I mean village! The town was simply a row of quaint clapboard homes perched high on a cliff over the Pacific. It was like something out of a novel, with a very Cape Cod-esque feel. We both loved it!

While in Mendocino, we went wine tasting at Pacific Star Winery. And when I say “wine tasting”, I mean we spent five amazing hours there. Who does that? During those five hours, we became best friends with the owners (hi Sally! hi Marcus!), joined the wine club, played with the dogs and watched both the sun set and the moon rise.

It will forever go down as the longest (and best!) wine tasting ever.

Before we left, Sally told me we had to stop at The Mendocino Cafe on our way out for their Thai Fire-Pot Soup.

“It will warm you from the inside out! Ask for rice–not noodles—and shrimp, ” she said as I struggled to wiggle my toes, which at that point had frozen inside of my boots.

The temperature here drops about thirty degrees once the sun goes down and my Florida blood is still quite thin despite now being a Northern Californian for two and a half years. So, we listened to her advice and got the soup, which turned out to be phenomenal: shrimp and rice floating in a light and spicy curry broth. After three deliciously spicy slurps, my toes and fingers defrosted and I anxiously wrote down in my notebook different flavors that I was tasting so I could recreate it at home.

I used shrimp and tofu but shrimp and chicken would work, as would simply shrimp or simply tofu. The base of the soup is coconut milk and chicken broth, and it’s delightfully creamy without being heavy.

You may have to go on an adventure to your local Asian market for curry paste, Thai basil and lemongrass but I promise it’s worth the trip. This soup is perfect for chilly January weather and leftovers taste even better the next day once the flavors have a chance to settle a bit. If you want to make the soup a little less spicy, omit the Thai chilies. If you love spice, add another! Then come over for dinner—at my house, it’s the spicier the better.

Fire-Pot Soup

serves 4

Print this recipe!

Ingredients:

3/4 lb raw shrimp, deveined, tails on or off

8 oz extra firm tofu, cut into small cubes

3 tbsp thai curry paste (available at large supermarkets and Asian markets)

1 tbsp canola oil

6 thai basil leaves, torn (available at Asian markets)

1 tbsp fish sauce

2 tsp brown sugar

1/2 tsp salt

1 14-oz can coconut milk

2 cups chicken broth

1 6-inch stalk lemongrass

1/2 lime, juiced

2 red or green Thai chilies, pierced with a knife

1/2 cup dry jasmine rice

cilantro for serving

Directions:

Cook the rice in a cup and a half of water until tender (about thirty minutes). Fluff and set aside.

Heat up a teaspoon of oil in a large nonstick skillet on high heat. Add the shrimp and saute about thirty seconds, until pink and curled. Remove shrimp and place on a plate with the cubed tofu. Set aside.

Heat the remaining oil in the skillet and bring back to medium high heat. Add the curry paste and “mash” together with the oil until both are combined. Stir while cooking for another two minutes and then slowly whisk in the coconut milk and broth.

Add the fish sauce, brown sugar, salt, torn Thai basil, lime juice, lemongrass stalk and chilies and simmer for ten minutes. Chop the cooked shrimp and add both that and the tofu to the skillet and heat through. Add cooked rice to individual bowls and top with soup and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Don’t forget to discard the lemongrass and chilies—you don’t want to eat those!

Time:

1 hour

      We stayed at the Headlands Inn (a lovely bed and breakfast) and then, my favorite! The Andiron Seaside Cabins! I had been wanting to stay there forever but they are always booked. We were planning on only staying in Mendocino one night but then when the Andiron had an opening, we stayed another night so I could fulfill my dream (aka stop obsessing). Totally worth it! The cabins are super cute and really (!!) affordable. I highly recommend it!

If it is, it’s been on my list of places to go in Cali for years. Maybe we’ll make the trip soon! Would you recommend now or when the weather warms up?

    This soup looks fantastic! It reminds me of a soup that is served in the cafeteria at the hospital that I work at (seriously, the “hospital food” there is fantastic) that is called Wicked Thai soup. It has a similar base, and is loaded with rice and chicken. It is so delicious and I’ve been meaning to try to recreate it at home. I’m going to give your recipe a go to see if it’s as similar as I think. Thanks Jenna!

    I LOVE Mendocino! My boyfriend and I took a weekend trip there when we first started dating for the white wine festival (do it if you get the chance!!) We stayed in the most charming inn…Little River Inn. They had the best breakfast and views of the ocean! If you go back, try the Mendo Bistro in town. I had a jobsite there (rough life!) and we ate there almost every night. The menu is always changing and everything was fantastic!

    What a fabulous trip. And making friends with local wine makers is always the best. They know all the best restaurants. And while I’m sure this soup is delicious with rice, I’m a noodle girl all the way. I’m willing to bet it would still be delicious with some rice noodles.

Saw this post and knew immediately it was what I wanted! Picked up the ingredients on my way home from work and the soup is currently simmering on my stove! Smells amazing!! Can’t wait to dig in! I only used tofu, no shrimp, and added carrots and broccoli for some extra veggies!

    Would it work to sub veg broth instead of chicken? In the past I have found that veg broth changed the flavor of some dishes – negatively.

    What do you think?

    This looks so tasty! I’m off to hunt up the ingredients to make it for tonight’s dinner.
    A few weeks ago I bought a lemongrass tea and after a cup of it I decided it would be much better used to flavor broth for a soup. I wonder if using that instead of fresh lemongrass would work.

  • Lindsay
    January 12, 2012 at 9:13 am

    After I saw this post yesterday, I immediately decided I should make it and use up the rest of the tofu I had on hand. Luckily, our tiny little grocery story stocks a lot of the Thai ingredients, and I found pretty much everything but Thai basil. It was so easy to make and most importantly, it tasted AMAZING. I am already looking forward to making it again!

    I shop at an Asian grocery store nearby often because it’s so close and my bf and I love to play with Asian flavours and seafood!
    Anyways, this soup looks so good I bought ingredients for it today!! The one thing I forgot were Thai Basil Leaves. Are these important?? What could sub if they are or do I need them? Any help would be great, but otherwise I will just try it without!
    I could only buy the chilli’s in a pack of like 20 so I’m gonna need another recipe with those in there haha ๐Ÿ™‚

    This is my favorite soup! Lovely recipe!
    If you can find it, then Palm Sugar is traditional to Thai cuisine and won’t overpower the more delicate flavors in your recipe. It comes in solid little bee hive shaped lumps and you grate off the amount you need. It lasts forever in a tightly sealed container too. ๐Ÿ™‚

    This is the second recipe of yours that I have made in two weeks time (and I made one of them twice in one week!). I made the spicy lentils with sweet potato and kale and I have to say its so fabulous. Something about the flavors of the kale and sweet potato really compliment each other. And this fire pot soup is so amazing! I didn’t have quite enough chicken stock so it came out more like a stew, but it is divine, filling and healthy! Thank you for so many good recipes!

    If you’ve had 8,000+ hits on your blog – I’m the reason. I love this soup and haven’t saved it yet. My new husband loves it. It’s so easy to substitute ingredients. I add leftover vegetables some nights. We replace the shrimp with whatever we have. I threw in lots of fresh ginger and garlic last time. Such a good recipe as is, but also a gem of a recipe for subbing.

    This looks so yummy!!! May I ask what kind of curry paste you recommend? I have red, yellow & green. From the look of it, I am thinking red…
    Thank you!

    Found this and I fell in love with this recipe. This is amazing we made it with chicken and it was awesome. Unfortunately we don’t have a lot of authentic ethnic stores out in astoria, or and local Safeway only sells red thai curry paste. Can you tell me which paste you used?

    I made this for the first time tonight and It was delicious!! I’ve been saving the recipe for a while now. We have a Thai restaurant in town that has a coconut milk based soup and I am in love with it! This is very similar. I used massaman curry paste and it had just the perfect amount of heat for me. My husband loves it too!!! The perfect soup for a cold winter night. Next time I think I’ll double the recipe and have people over. I love the idea of maybe throwing in some veggies, this is a very versatile soup!!!
