This deliciously aromatic Thai soup is infused with lemongrass, galangal (thai ginger) and kaffir lime. Translated it simply means coconut soup (Tom Kha) with prawns (Goong). It can also be made with chicken, and is called Tom Kha Gai. The soup can be served with rice, but is equally delicious by itself.
Tom Kha Goong
Cooking Time: 25mins
Number of Serves: 3-4
Instructions:
Ingredients:
250g of prawn meat (PRAWMB)
3 cups of water mixed with one cube of chicken stock (CHICCUBE24)
1 400ml can of Kara coconut milk (COCM24)
1 tablespoon of Regal Thai crushed galangal (thai ginger) (GALM110)
4 tablespoons of Regal Thai minced lemongrass (LEMONGM)
1 tablespoon of Regal Thai minced kaffir lime (KAFFM)
½ tin of straw mushrooms, well rinsed and chopped in half (MUSHSTM425)
1-2 small chillies chopped in half (CHILWSF)
2 tablespoons of fish sauce (SAUFIS)
1 teaspoon of grated palm sugar (SUGPAL)
1 tablespoon of lime juice (LIMEF)
Step by Step:
Add stock, coconut milk, lemongrass, kaffir lime, and galangal (thai ginger) to a medium pot. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes to infuse.
Add prawns and mushrooms and simmer for 5 to 6 minutes to cook.
Now it’s time to adjust the seasoning - Thai cooking needs to have the perfect balance of salt, sweetness, sourness and hot chilli kick.
Add the chilli, fish sauce, palm sugar and lime juice, stir to combine and then taste. Adjust depending on your preferences - I tend towards making things quite salty and sour.
Garnish with some fresh spring onions, Thai basil or coriander and serve immediately.
