Thai Soup Recipe

 Here is a simple recipe for a traditional Thai soup called Tom Kha Gai:

Ingredients:

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces

4 cups chicken broth

1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk

2 stalks lemongrass, bruised and cut into 2-inch pieces

4 kaffir lime leaves

2 tbsp fish sauce

1 tbsp sugar

2 red Thai chilies, sliced

1 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)

2 tbsp chopped cilantro for garnish

Instructions:

In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer.

Add the chicken, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, fish sauce, and sugar. Simmer for 10 minutes.

Stir in the coconut milk, mushrooms (if using), and chilies. Simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Remove the lemongrass and kaffir lime leaves.

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with cilantro.

Note: You can add more or less chilies as per your taste and you can also use shrimp or tofu instead of chicken.
