Ingredients

4 servings

  • 2 stalks lemongrass
  • 2 thai red chili peppers, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon galangal, minced
  • 1 tablespoon refined coconut oil
  • 5 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 large tomato, diced
  • 5 lime leaves
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 7 oz extra firm tofu, cubed
  • 6 oz cremini mushroom, sliced
  • ¼ cup lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon agave
  • salt, to taste
  • fresh cilantro leaf, for garnish

Instructions

  • Trim off the top third and very bottom of the lemongrass stalks. Using the side of a knife, press down across the stalks to bruise the lemongrass and release the oils. Chop each stalk into 4 pieces and set aside.
  • Add the chili peppers, garlic, and galangal to a mortar and pestle and grind into a paste. Set aside.
  • Melt the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the lemongrass and cook for 3-4 minutes, until fragrant. Add the chili pepper paste and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until fragrant.
  • Add the vegetable broth, tomato, lime leaves, coconut milk, and soy sauce and stir to combine. Bring to a boil. Cover, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, until broth has reduced slightly.
  • Add the tofu and mushrooms and stir to combine. Cook for 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender.
  • Add the lime juice and agave and stir to combine. Season with salt to taste.
  • Garnish with cilantro and serve.
  • Enjoy!
