Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Add the avocado oil, ginger, garlic, and lemongrass in a large soup pot on medium-low heat. Sweat the mixture for 2-3 minutes; it should be fragrant but not burnt.
- Increase the heat to medium and add the shrimp. Cook the shrimp until they are pink and no longer translucent, about 5-6 minutes. Remove them from the pot and set them aside.
- Add the curry paste and sauté for about 2 minutes, whisking continuously.
- Add the chicken broth, lime juice, carrots, and salt. Whisk to combine things thoroughly and bring the mixture to a simmer. Continue simmering the soup until the carrots are soft, about 12-15 minutes.
- Remove the soup from the heat and puree the soup with an immersion blender or high-speed blender. You want it to be smooth and have no chucks.
- Return the soup to medium heat and add the coconut milk. Whisk to thoroughly combine and bring to a simmer.
- Remove the soup from the heat and serve topped with shrimp, cilantro, and pepitas.
