Step 1
Remove any tough outer layers from the lemongrass and use the side of your knife to lightly crush the stalks. Cut the lemongrass into 1-inch lengths. Pick the cilantro leaves and toss the stems. Drain the shrimp.
Step 2
In a pot over high heat, combine the chicken broth, lemongrass, and 10 lime leaves. Bring to a simmer, turn down the heat to maintain, and cook until the flavors come together, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove and discard the lemongrass and lime leaves.
Step 3
Add the mushrooms and simmer until soft, 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and simmer until bright pink and tightly furled, 3 minutes. Turn down the heat, and stir in the coconut milk, the juice of 1 lime, 2 tablespoons fish sauce, and 2 teaspoons sugar. Season to taste with more fish sauce, if necessary.
Step 4
Cut the remaining lime into wedges for serving. Ladle the soup into bowls and scatter with the cilantro leaves. Serve warm, with the lime wedges for squeezing.
