For a milder flavor, remove the seeds from the chile padi before adding them to the soup. Adjust the amount of chili paste to your preferred level of spiciness. Fresh galangal and makrut lime leaves can be found at most Asian supermarkets. Don't skip making the shrimp stock! It adds an incredible depth of flavor to the soup. For a richer soup, you can add a can of coconut milk during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
