Creamy Spicy Chayote soup with Shrimp

This dish is my old time favorites, my mother often make it at home we call it Sayur labuh (chayote soup)

This typical fruit its very common for sauteing or 
soup or even for wonton filling. 

But in My house my mom always make it with coconut milk and alots of red chilly and chilly padi to make it spicy and  we always eat with steam rice, you can put anything in beside Chayote, such as chicken, beef, or seafood.

I am gonna start with:

2 Chayote fruits (labuh siam) peeled and cut length wise 

3 Big red chilly any kind (seedless) or red peppers

5 Clove of garlic

2 Of chilly padi

1Thumb size gallangal roots (lengkuas)

1 Tbs Coriander powder

3 Bulb Shallot (baawang merah)

1 Tsp of shrimp paste (Trasi/belacan)

2 Square tofu/ bean curd (cut in to square bite size)

2 Cup coconut milk

3 Cup of water
1 Pack of  store bought peeled shrimp (saute in 1 tbs of butter for 3-5 minutes)  then set a side

Grind all the ingredients above except the chayote and coconut milk and the shrimp.

Saute the tofu with 1 Tbs of veggie oil in medium heat for 5 minutes then add the grind ingredient in to it saute for another 5 minutes, add the chayote stir a little than add the coconut milk, cook for 10 minutes, add water, cook until it boil then add the shrimp, remove from the heat. 

Ready to serve, squeeze 1/4 lime or lemon then garnish with cilantro and lime if you like.  
It's also one of my Family classic dish..... its really good memory, enjoy everyone.
