Adapted from a free recipe from my local market. If you want, substitute raw for boiled shrimp; peel and devein it and add it with the scallops. You can substitute frozen snow peas, thawed, for the fresh ones and 3 cups canned or homemade vegetable broth for the vegetable bouillon. Alter the amount of garlic to suit your taste.
Ingredients:
3 teaspoons vegetable bouillon granules
1 cup bottled clam juice
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon minced garlic (to taste)
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger or 1 1/2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 1/2 cups fresh snow peas
1/2 lb raw sea scallops, sliced in half
1 (13 1/2 ounce) can light coconut milk
1/4 cup lime juice (about 3 limes)
2 tablespoons chopped scallions
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 lb boiled medium shrimp
4 slices limes (optional, for garnish)
Directions:
1. In large pot, heat 3 cups water and dissolve vegetable bouillon granules.
2. Whisk in clam juice through ginger; bring to a boil.
3. Add mushrooms, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes.
4. Add snow peas and scallops; bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes more.
5. Stir in coconut milk through red pepper; cook 3 minutes more.
6. Add boiled shrimp and cook 1-2 minutes more just until heated through.
