This was great. Everyone I shared it with loved it.The only thing i did different was I added some cayanne red pepper to it for a little more heat.I will definatly be making this again
My husband and I loved this dish. We like spicy food so we added extra peppers and used the hot red curry paste. It added extra flavor.
A creamy and very delightful soup. Made as written except as follows: subbed 3/4 lb. shrimp & 3/4 lb. sea scallops for 1 lb. shrimp subbed seafood stock for water doubled the red curry paste and omitted the rice crackers and sliced basil. We did not remove the seeds from the jalapeno pepper which gave it a welcome hint of heat that was well within our tolerance zone. At this juncture there are 4 other reviews. All but one mention adding ingredients to give more heat to the soup (e.g. doubling the jalapenos or adding cayenne pepper). We would be comfortable with it but I can see where that may disappoint some folks especially with children... taste as you go and only add more if sure you want it hotter. Another very good recipe Chef John.
This was so easy and fabulous. However I doubled the curry paste and the jalapenos because I like it really spicy. However even doubling it wasn't too much and others that don't care for too spicy that it was perfect.
Holy Cow this was great! I had a 6oz can of Lump Crab so I tossed that in at the same time as the Shrimp. Upped the curry paste to taste. In the future I intend to experiment with adding Mussels and Scallops too. Thanks for another great recipe!
This recipe is stupendous... Thought I'd give it a shot despite the fact that not many people had rated it. It's wonderful. Chef John scores again!!
OMG delicious. Tweak as you want but why fiddle with perfection?!
Thank you Chef John for another very tasty recipe! I omitted the flour to avoid the extra carbs and added 2 fresh diced tomatoes and the result was delicious. My husband and I both loved it.
I followed the recipe exactly. For the tomato soup I used Pacific Organic Creamy Tomato Soup that comes in a box (don't forget to shake it before using). I found the bisque's flavor a bit mild so I added a heaping teaspoon of the Mae Ploy red curry paste in addition to the 1/4 tsp from the recipe. It was so good. My husband went back for a third helping. I will make this again because it is so quick easy and of course delicious.
It was just ok. Flavor was overly dominated by Campbell's tomato soup. I'd try it again with a base made from fresh tomatoes.
