This is a mild but spicy chicken soup (it can also be made with shrimp, pork, beef or mushrooms),

flavored with the very unique flavor of galangal ("kha" in Thai) which creates a heavenly taste

when combined with hot chile peppers, coconut milk, lime leaves and lemongrass.



Ingredients



16 fluid ounces soup broth (chicken stock)

4-5 kaffir lime leaves, shredded

4 or 5 2 inch pieces fresh lemongrass, bruised to release flavor

1 inch cube (or a bit more) galangal sliced thinly.

4 tablespoons fish sauce

2 tablespoons lime juice

4 oz chicken breast cut into smallish bite sized pieces

5 fluid ounces coconut milk

small red Thai chile peppers, slightly crushed (to taste)

coriander (cilantro) leaves to garnish.



Note the number of red peppers is a personal choice. It can be as few as half a chilli per diner, to

as many as 8-10 per diner, but the dish should retain a balance of flavors and not be overwhelmend

by the chili peppers. We suggest about 8-12 chili peppers for this recipe.



Method



Heat the stock, add the lime leaves, lemongrass, galangal, fish sauce, and lime juice. Stir thoroughly,

bring to a boil, and add the chicken and coconut milk, then the chile peppers. Bring back to the boil,

lower the heat to keep it simmering and cook for about 2 minutes (until the chicken is cooked through).

Enjoy!



Not really intended to be eaten as a separate course, we like it served ladled over a bowl of steamed

Thai jasmine rice. This quantity serves 4 with other food, but is probably only enough for two if eaten

separately.
