Excellent soup. We were both surprised with how flavorful it was, and so easy too! I will definitely make this soup again.

This soup was outstanding. My husband couldn’t believe all of the flavor from “just water and red pepper flakes”. I had some leftover coconut rice from dinner the night before and it paired wonderfully with the thai influences..

This has become a regular in my kitchen; it’s simple, flavorful and filling! I tweak the recipe slightly – I’m a vegetarian, so I just substitute some TVP chunks or a meat analog for the chicken. It also works well in the crockpot. I’ve made this with coconut rice, too, and the creamy coconut adds balances out the spicy flavor of the soup (husband likes it spicy, so I often add more than called for in the recipe!).

I made this tonight with Bok Choy instead of celery, and loved it. I’m sure texasebeth is right–I can’t wait to have it for lunch tomorrow!

This reminds me very much of a pork soup I tried in Thailand. The soup I tried was very simple with chunks of pork and some kind of greens (maybe cilantro) in a slightly spicy broth. We put some rice on our plate and then spooned some of the soup on top. Delicious! I can’t wait to try this recipe!

Shalomseeker is right guys, I meant to type teaspoons NOT Tablespoons. I make the soup from memory and eyeball my ingredients each time,so I hadn’t noticed. Thanks for pointing it out SS.

Oh mercy. I love Tom Yum Gai soup, and this was incredibly similar to what I normally purchase…with lots more for lots less $! SO yummy. Thank you for posting it! I will be making this again, and soon! (P.S. I used only 2 *teaspoons* of salt and found that to be plenty.)

oh, and I found it even better as left-overs. I just dumped the small amount of left over rice into the soup and microwaved it. Man, it was awesome! Letting it sit for a day just made the spices mix even better.
