1.

To make the curry paste: Wrap shrimp

paste in a piece of aluminium foil.

Cook under a hot grill and cook for

1–2 minutes each side. Place chillies

in a heatproof bowl and cover with

boiling water; soak for approximately

15 minutes or until softened. Assemble

food processor with the mini processing

bowl inserted. Combine shrimp paste,

chillies and remaining red curry paste

ingredients into the mini bowl and

process until finely chopped.

2.

Open can of coconut milk without

shaking; spoon the firm coconut into a

large saucepan and cook, stirring over

a medium high heat until the coconut

milk separates. Add the curry paste to

the pan and cook, stirring, until the paste

becomes fragrant.

tIP

If you can’t buy coconut milk that

has a firm top omit this step and use

1 tablespoon oil and add all coconut

milk in step 5.

3.

Add sweet potato and stock to the pan

and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and

simmer for about 20 minutes or until the

sweet potato is soft.

4.

Meanwhile, combine the coriander pesto

ingredients into the mini processing

bowl and process until combined.

Season to taste.

5.

Once the sweet potato is soft, add

remaining coconut milk to the saucepan

and allow soup to cool.

6.

Insert Quad blade into the processor

bowl; carefully spoon soup into bowl.

Place lid on processor. Process soup

until smooth; scrap down sides if

necessary. Return pureed soup to

saucepan to reheat; adjust the salt levels

of the soup with fish sauce to taste.

7.

To serve ladle soup into bowls and

spoon coriander pesto into the soup.

Stir through and squeeze fresh lime

to taste.
