Directions
-
In a blender or food processor, combine garlic, shallot, red onion, dried red chili pepper, sweet paprika, and vegetable oil. Process until smoothly combined and pureed.
-
Place the spice puree in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes to release the flavors, stirring occasionally so it does not burn. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
-
In a large saucepan, combine 4 tablespoons of the cooled garlic-onion mixture with galanga, lemongrass, lime leaves, chicken stock, fish sauce, and sugar.
-
Bring the broth to a boil over medium heat.
-
Add the shrimp, crab claws, mussels, and whitefish slices to the stock.
-
Let the soup return to a boil and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and the mussels have opened.
-
Remove from heat and stir in fresh lime juice.
-
Ladle into bowls and garnish with chopped green onion and coriander root before serving.

Note
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on the stove over low heat. Avoid boiling the seafood again to prevent it from becoming tough.
Ingredient Substitutions: If fresh galanga is unavailable, you can use ginger as a substitute, though the flavor will be less distinct. For the whitefish, any firm-fleshed fish such as cod, tilapia, or sea bass works well. Ensure mussels are fresh by checking that they are closed or close when tapped.
Preparation Tips: Remove the tough outer layers from the lemongrass stalk and bruise it lightly with the back of a knife before adding to the broth to release its aroma. Discard any mussels that do not open during cooking.
