Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 shallots (5 to 6 ounces total), peeled, halved lengthwise, and thinly sliced crosswise (about 1 cup)
5 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps thinly sliced
4 carrots, sliced into ribbons with a vegetable peeler (about 2 cups)
1 piece fresh ginger (3 inches long), peeled and finely minced
1 medium jalapeno pepper (ribs and seeds removed for less heat, if desired), finely minced
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk
1 sirloin steak (12 ounces), thinly sliced crosswise
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lime zest and 1/4 cup juice (from about 2 limes)
Cilantro leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium-high. Add 3/4 cup shallots; cook, stirring frequently and being careful not to burn, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shallots to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Discard all but 1 tablespoon of the pan oil.
  • In same pan over medium heat, add mushrooms, carrots, ginger, jalapeno, and remaining cup shallots; season with salt and pepper. Cook until carrots have softened and mushrooms have begun to release their liquid, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add coconut milk, beef, and 3 cups water; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook 5 minutes. Stir in lime zest and juice; remove from heat.
  • Ladle soup into serving bowls; garnish with shallots and, if desired, cilantro leaves.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili peppers if you don't like spicy food.
