If you follow along here you know we are big into soups!! So for this #SundaySupper I jumped right in!! I have made a lot of soups of late so wanted to stray away to something different. Usually Thai cooking can be very exhausting with its endless list of ingredients. Usually it is just small bits of this or that but the list is long!! I wanted to try and avoid that with this soup. Make it easy but still full of flavor. I used my own pickled garlic that I get at the farmers market that I pickle with the small Thai red peppers, so I didn’t need as much heat from the curry paste but you can adjust that to your liking. Enjoy!!
- 3 large cloves garlic, minced
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 3 tsp. Thai red curry paste or to taste
- I-19 oz. can light coconut milk
- 900 ml. chicken stock
- Salt to taste
- 1 red pepper cut into small strips
- 1 lb. mussels, cleaned and breads removed
- Cilantro for garnish
- In a soup pot saute garlic in the olive oil for 1 min. Add the curry paste and stir and cook for 1 min. Add the coconut milk and chicken stock, stirring to combine. Bring up to a boil, salt to taste and add pepper strips. Cook for 5 min. Add the mussels and cook for 5 min. or until shells are open. Discard any that have not completely opened. Serve in bowls garnished with cilantro.

Curry and coconut milk, throw anything inside and you´ve got a great meal. That´s how my curries usually go. This is the most sophisticated soup version, yet very rustic, I just love it! Wonderful Tara!
Thanks so much Paula!!

Thank you so much Shannon!!
I am in love with this flavor combo! The Mr. and I are huge fans of mussels, but I haven’t been brave enough to cook them at home. I don’t know why seafood has always been intimidating for me. This may be the push I needed!
I hope you do try cooking mussels they are so easy and tasty!!
Gorgeous soup Tara. This is really stunning.
