Szechuan Hot and Sour Soup

I've always wanted to make Hot and Sour Soup at home and this was my first attempt. I was very pleased with the result. I used an Indonesian Chili paste and with only one teaspoon added it was plenty hot enough for me. I also upped the sugar from 1/2 teaspoon to about 1 1/2 teaspoons. The soup is chock full of tofu strips, bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms and finished nicely with a bit of sesame oil, cilantro and scallions. Yum!
