Tom yum Soup

食材

3 cups chicken stock

3 heaping TB of Tom Yum Paste (Maesri brand)

1-3 TB fish sauce

5 fresh and finely chopped Thai chilis (1-5).

3 tbsp lime juice

1 lb chicken breast

1 cup mushrooms

0.5 onion

步驟

Take 3 cups of your favorite stock (veg, chicken or pork) and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, add in 3 heaping TB of Tom Yum Paste (I like the Maesri brand). Whisk until paste breaks down into broth.

Lower heat, add in fish sauce (1-3 TB), fresh and finely chopped chilis (1-5). Turn off heat and add lime juice until the soup tastes balanced.

Take whatever protein you are using (shrimp, chicken, tofu or mushrooms) and gently poach in soup until just cooked.

Ladle out a portion of soup into a bowl and top with fresh cilantro.
