How to Make Thai Hot And Sour Soup
- In a large saucepan, bring the 4 cups of chicken stock to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium. Stir in the 2 tablespoons of Tom Yum paste and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
- Add the 2 stalks of bruised and roughly chopped lemongrass and 4-5 kaffir lime leaves (or 1 tablespoon lime zest). Simmer for 1 minute.
- Add the chicken (or prawns). If using chicken, cook for 5 minutes, or until no longer pink and juices run clear. If using prawns, cook for 2-3 minutes, or until opaque.
- Stir in the 1 cup of sliced mushrooms.
- Add 1-2 tablespoons of fish sauce, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, and 1-2 thinly sliced Thai green chilies. Adjust the amount of fish sauce and chilies according to your taste preference.
- Simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the flavors are well blended. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Remove from heat.
- Garnish with fresh coriander and basil.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
