TOM KHA GAI
Tom kha gai (ต้มข่าไก่) is a very popular Thai dish, and you can find it in Thailand at everywhere from nice restaurant to street food rice and curry stalls. The base of this Thai soup / curry, is coconut milk, so it has a rich and creamy flavor. Though it would often be listed as a soup, in my opinion tom kha gai (ต้มข่าไก่) is more of a curry due to the way in which it's eaten. It's served in a bowl along with plate of rice on the side, and it's usually scooped by spoon by spoon onto the rice and eaten bite by bite. In Thailand, most of the time it's eaten along with a full spread of Thai dishes to make a complete meal of well rounded flavors.

Steps:
- Once you have all the ingredients ready, you basically boil them all in coconut milk for about 10 minutes, turn off the heat, add in the cilantro and lime juice, and scoop it into a bowl to consume (ok there are a few other steps to make this, but that's why I made this tom kha gai recipe ต้มข่าไก่ video).
- Tom kha gai (ต้มข่าไก่) is not meant to be an overly spicy Thai dish, like some can be. Instead, it's a Thai dish that focuses on the flavor of the coconut milk and the fresh ingredients. That being said, the recipe does include some Thai bird chilies, and I would recommend adding anywhere from 5 - 10 depending on how spicy you'd like it. However, that being said, it's supposed to be a mild dish. This recipe is simple to make, it doesn't take too many ingredients, and the flavors are well rounded and tasty. Make tom kha gai for your friends and family and they are sure to love it. Try this recipe out, let me know what you think in the comments below, and thank you for watching.

QUICK AND EASY TOM KHA GAI
This is the very traditional recipe, but I've tweaked the quantities to make it much easier to shop for and work with. From start to finish you can have this done in half an hour or so, and the technique really is beginner-level easy. Unfortunately, if you don't live in an area with a Chinese grocery store, ingredient availability will be a problem. The hardest items to find are usually the kha (also called galangal) and the kaffir lime leaves, but if you can't find them PLEASE don't let that stop you; it's still excellent even without them. Everything else listed here is very easy to find, between the Chinese grocery and regular grocery. This is one of the national dishes of Thailand, and is usually found at Thai restaurants, but this recipe is better than ANY I have ever had in a restaurant. I can't claim any credit though; I'm just passing along a very good recipe. WARNING: this soup is totally addictive!

Steps:
- Tips: the lemon grass, lime leaves and kha are best left in large pieces to make them easier to pick out later, as they are tough and inedible. I leave them in all the way till serving and tell my guests to look for them and set them aside as they eat. The RecipeZaar ingredient format makes it hard to enter how much galangal (kha) to use: I use a root-knob about twice the size of the ball of my thumb. I use half of a 4-ounce tin of red curry paste (4 tablespoons) for a pretty spicy-hot soup; you can use 1/4 can for milder heat, but the recipe for Tom Kha Gai on the Maesri tin calls for the whole thing- WOW that must be hot!
- In a large stock pot, saute the curry paste, garlic, lemon grass, lime leaves and kha in the vegetable oil for two minutes.
- Stir in chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- While broth is heating, slice the chicken breast and toss it in cornstarch. The amount of cornstarch doesn't need to be exact; just make sure the slices are evenly coated and shake off any excess.
- Add chicken to boiling broth, stir gently, and bring back up to a simmer.
- Stir in mushrooms, coconut milk, fish sauce and lime juice. Bring back up to a simmer, stirring gently a few times, then cut the heat off and you're ready to serve.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve.

TOM KHA GAI THAI SOUP
I fell in love with my local Thai restaurant's tom kha gai soup, and this is my closest match to it. It's delicious, healthful, and filling. The galangal, ginger, and lemon grass chunks are not meant to be eaten, so they can be thrown out or put back in the pot.
