What goes into tom yum soup?

Question

I've bought some tom yum paste. The label says 2 tbsp per cup of water, add meats and vegetables as preferred.

What would be good, reasonably authentic solids?

Standard would be shrimp, mushrooms, and green onions.

Possibly some hot peppers, but if the paste is sufficiently spicy, you might want to use a more mild pepper for texture
