Method

1.
Pound the chillies and garlic in a pestle and mortar to a fine paste (you can use a small food processor or Nutribullet to do this, if you like).

2.
Bring the stock to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Add the chilli and garlic paste, then bring back to the boil. Simmer for 1-2 minutes, then add the prawns and bring back to the boil for 2-3 minutes until the prawns are pink and just cooked.

3.
Remove the pan from the heat, then add the lime juice and fish sauce. Taste and add more of each as needed. Divide among bowls and garnish with fresh coriander to serve.
