Cooking instructions
Step 1: The first thing we need to make is the base for the soup. Add the chilli, shrimp paste, shallots, pepper and 2 of the prawns to a food processor and blend for 1-2 minutes until you are left with a thick paste.
Step 2: Add 4 cups of water to a saucepan and boil. Then add the paste that we just made and the chopped butternut squash, mix well, and cook for 5 minutes until the squash begins to soften.
Step 3: Once the squash has begun to soften, add the courgettes and the baby corn, mix well, and allow to cook for 3 minutes.
Step 4: Next add the carrots and green beans, mix well, and cook for 5 minutes
Step 5: Finally add the mushrooms, prawns, and watercress, stir well, and cook for a final 3 minutes
