How to Make Flexible Thai Soup

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped shallots, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon grated ginger. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant.
  2. Pour in 1 (13.5 ounce) can of full-fat coconut milk and 2 cups of vegetable broth. Stir well to combine.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
  5. Add 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1-2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce (adjust to your spice preference), 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 2 cups of your favorite vegetables (e.g., chopped broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, mushrooms).
  6. Continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Add 1 cup of baby spinach during the last 2 minutes and cook until wilted.
  7. Serve hot over cooked rice. Garnish with extra cilantro and a lime wedge, if desired.
