Healthy, because
Shrimps not only score points with high-quality protein but also supply valuable iodine. This trace element is required for the proper functioning of the thyroid gland. The pumpkin has a regulating effect on the water balance due to its high potassium content.
Even smarter
Shrimps are quickly perishable due to their high protein content - it is best to prepare them on the day of purchase or use frozen foods.
For that special something, pour the finished soup into empty young coconuts and garnish with water spinach or similar. This makes a real eye-catcher and is definitely an eye-catcher!
