Blue Elephant Tom Yam Sour and Spicy Soup image

A friend gave me some sample curry pastes from the company Blue Elephant:Royal Thai Cuisine, and oh joy, they have recipes on the back! This one uses the Tom Yam Chili Paste(Hot), the description reads "Combined with lemongrass and galanga, this aromatic paste will give you a hot and sour "Tom Yam" soup..". Kaffir lime leaves are available in most Asian supermarkets. Storing it here, when I've made it, I'll update.
