Ingredients:
2 tsp Oil, use coconut oil, if it is handy
2 Shallots, chopped
2 tbsp Garlic, chopped
2 tbsp Galangal, chopped or substitute with ginger
2 tbsp Lemongrass, chopped, remove outer layer and dice the inner portion
5 Thai Red Chili, reduce the quantity for less heat
2 tbsp Thai Red Curry Paste
0.7 lb Chicken Breast, diced
2 cups Mushroom, sliced, use any edible mushroom variety
3 cups Chicken Broth, reduced sodium
13½ fl. oz Coconut Milk, thick and unsweetened variety
1 tbsp Brown Sugar
1 tbsp Fish Sauce
1½ tbsp Lime Juice, or lemon juice
Coriander Leaves, to garnish
Spring Onions, to garnish
Salt, to taste
Lime Slices, for topping
Recipe Notes:
1. For best flavor - To enhance the dish's flavor profile, I started by sautéing the aromatics, Thai red curry paste, chicken, and mushrooms. However, in some variations of this recipe, the sautéing step may be skipped, and the ingredients are directly simmered in water or coconut milk
2. Chicken broth - When it comes to chicken broth, I used store-bought, but you can also make your broth and use it in this recipe
3. Aromatics - Aromatics are essential to Thai soup, and I highly recommend including lemongrass and galangal to achieve an authentic flavor. While galangal can be challenging in regular grocery stores, it's readily available at most Asian grocery stores
4. For the rich soup - For a rich, creamy, and flavorful Tom Kha Soup, it's crucial to use thick unsweetened coconut milk
5. Fish sauce - Even though fish sauce has a distinct funky fishy smell, you won't detect any unpleasant odor when added to this soup. Instead, it delivers the umami flavors that give this dish a bold and unique taste
6. Heat level - When it comes to heat levels, I've incorporated four Thai red chilies into this soup, resulting in a moderately high heat level. However, if you prefer less heat, feel free to reduce the number of chilies used
