  • 0.5 cup lemon grass, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 6 kaffir lime leaves

  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 2 Thai chile peppers, sliced
  • 0.5 cup green onions, chopped
  • 0.5 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions:
  • Peel and devein shrimp, keeping the shells for later.
  • In a large saucepan, simmer shrimp shells with 6 cups water for 45 minutes. Then add galangal, lemongrass, and lime leaves; simmer for an additional 15 minutes.
