Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 ½ tablespoons garlic, minced
1 fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
1 shallot, thinly sliced
½ cup cherry tomato
1 lb mussels, scubbed and debearded
2 serrano peppers
3 long red peppers
½ cup chinese long beans, cut into 2 in (5 cm) pieces
2 cups vegetable broth
2 tablespoons tamarind paste
1 tablespoon fish sauce, plus more to taste
2 cups baby spinach
1 radish, thinly sliced

Steps:

Heat the canola oil in a large pan with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger, and shallot and sweat until starting to soften, 2-3 minutes.
Add the cherry tomatoes. Sauté until the tomatoes begin to pop and release some of their juices, 2-3 minutes.
Add the mussels, serrano peppers, long red peppers, and Chinese long beans. Cook for 1 minute, then pour in the fish stock. Cover and steam until the mussels open, 2-3 minutes.
Add the tamarind paste, fish sauce, and water spinach. Cook until the spinach is wilted, 2 minutes. Discard any mussels that have not opened.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with the radish and scallion. Serve hot with jasmine rice.
Enjoy!
