Broth

Method

Prepare the Broth

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large pot, combine water, fish sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, sriracha sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, and red chili flakes. Stir well to mix all the ingredients.

  2. 2

    Bring to a Boil

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  3. 3

    Finish the Broth

    Stir in the lime juice and taste the broth, adjusting seasoning with more salt or sugar if needed.

Cook the Seafood and Vegetables

  1. 4

    Add Cabbage

    Add the shredded cabbage to the pot and let it cook for about 5 minutes until it starts to soften.

  2. 5

    Add Seafood

    Add the mussels, shrimp, and clams to the pot. Cover and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels and clams have opened and the shrimp is cooked through.

  3. 6

    Add Tofu

    Gently stir in the cubed tofu and cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.

  4. 7

    Garnish

    Remove from heat, and garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro before serving.
