Thai coconut chicken soup - How to prepare the authentic Tom Kha Gai

Today I am preparing a mouth-watering Tom Kha Gai or Thai coconut chicken soup. This dish will guarantee to tantalize your taste buds with its delectable flavor and aroma. Contrary to popular belief, not all Thai dishes are spicy, and Tom Kha Gai is a perfect example. Although I use a mix of local spices such as galangal and lemongrass, the soup is not fiery hot. The color is not red like other spicy soups, assuring you that this soup is milder and more soothing. The flavor results from combining Thai ingredients such as galangal, lemongrass, and creamy coconut milk, giving it a rich and velvety mouthfeel and a blast of authentic flavor that fires up all senses. This soup is a staple in most Thai restaurants I have visited, and it's not hard to see why. Let me show you how to make it in this video. ======================================= Recipe: (Please download the recipe and read the full details at https://tasteasianfood.com/thai-cocon... ) Ingredients 2 stalks of lemongrass (remove ends, bashed, and cut into 2-inch sections) 3 inches of galangal (cut into slices) 3 bird's eye chilies (bashed) 2 large onions (cut into wedges) 3 kaffir lime leaves (cut into smaller pieces) 1 large tomato (cut into eight pieces) 100g of shimeiji mushrooms. 350g chicken slices(from 1.5 deboned chicken) 2.5 cups of chicken stock 2 tsp palm sugar 1 tsp salt 3 tbsp fish sauce 2 cups of coconut milk 1 tbsp chopped spring onion 1 tbsp spoon chopped coriander leaves. 3 tbsp lime juice Method First, bring the chicken stock to a boil. Next, add the bashed lemongrass, chilies, galangal slices, and onions chunks. Let them boil for a few minutes to release the flavor. Add the kaffir lime leaves, bashed bird's eye chilies, and the chicken slices and simmer over low heat until cooked. Also, include the tomato and mushrooms at this stage. Cook over low to medium heat until the mushrooms are cooked, and the tomato is soft. Season the soup with palm sugar, salt, and fish sauce. Lastly, add the fresh lime juice and turn off the heat. Add the chopped coriander leaves, spring onions, and lime wedges as garnish. #ThaiCoconutChickenSoup #TomKhaGai ======================================= Website: https://tasteasianfood.com/   / tasteofasianfood     / kwankapang     / kwankapang     / kwankapang
