Tom Kha Kai soup

Tom Kha Kai soup

Iwona is ambitious: she organised yet more cooking courses. Of course I subscribed. Especially that my daughter wanted to get some"insider knowledge" about cuisine. 
She came with me to "99", whose chef, Ernest, waited for us to share his Thai  experience. 
The recipe for this pleasantly spicy, warming soup was one of his finds...










"Tom Kha Kai soup"

-1/2 litre of chicken broth, cube or powder
- coconut milk - 0.75 litre
- 0.3 litre cream
- 100g Tom Yum paste 
-  4 blades of lemon grass ;)
- 1/2 piece of fresh ginger, finely chopped  
- 6 tbsp soy sauce
- 5 tbsp sugar

Heat olive oil, add curry paste, fry. Add coconut milk and cream after a while, then  lemon grass and ginger, boil, add the broth, followed by the remaining ingredients. A few herbs and the soup is ready!
