Make the Chili Paste first by grinding all the ingredients to a smooth paste in a blender or food processor, adding some water to keep the blades tuning if necessary. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Bring the stock to a boil in a stockpot over high heat. Add the lemongrass, galangal and kaffir lime leaves, sand simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until the stock is infused with the herbs. Season with the fish sauce, sugar and Chili Paste and remove from the heat.
About 5 minutes before serving, ring the stock to a boil over high heat, add the seafood and mushrooms, and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes until cooked. Remove from the heat and stir in the lime juice and chilies. Check seasoning, adding more fish sauce, lime juice and Chili Paste if desired.
