Pin Recipe Instructions
- Free the shrimp from the tail and notch lengthways on the outer edge (they then rise like flowers in the hot water).
- Heat the water and add all the ingredients (except for the prawns!), Simmer gently while stirring, approx. 2 min.
- Then add the prawns to the boiling water - at first do not stir, only after about 1 minute (otherwise they will disintegrate easily).
- The soup is ready when the shrimp have turned reddish in color.
- Serve the soup hot with a little coconut milk as a decoration on top.
About Editorial Staff
The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
