Tom Yum Soup isgood for you, with just 156 calories per serving and very low fat.
Ive no idea which is more popular, and truthfully I like both equally so I dont play favourites.
Thecreamy versionhas a slightly bigger flavour punch because of the addition of the chilli paste.
The evaporated milk really doesnt add flavour, it just changes the appearance.
Difference between Tom Yum and Tom Kha?
Tom Yum is best made with whole prawns/shrimp that you peel yourself.
But Ive got a recipe made with frozen peeled prawns too see recipe notes!!
Key to this soup broth are all the fragrant fresh herbs and spices you see below.
The kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass, galangal, chilli and garlic.
They impart such beautiful flavour into the soup!
And heres the stuff IN the soup.
A lot of plonk and simmer above to make the broth.
And more plonk and simmer below when you add the stuff into the soup.
The broth looks deceptively simple clear and unassuming.
But wait until you try it!
Can you freeze Tom Yum soup?
Yes you’re free to!
And now for the creamy version!
But its not, its evaporated milk.
Whichever you choose classic clear or the creamy version, you are going to love it.
It tastes 100% authentic, as good as you get at Thai restaurants.
Its astonishingly easy, SUPER HEALTHY, and tastes just like the real deal!
