Preparation
- Serving size:10.20 oz (calculated)Notes: a bit over one cup of soup
- Score the lemongrass bulbs, for example by chopping them lightly.
- Roughly chop the shallots.
- Slice the galangal.
- Add everything to a pot with salted water and bring it to a boil.
- Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Once boiling, add the chicken to the pot and let simmer for 10 minutes.
- Roughly chop the mushrooms.
- Deseed the chili and slice it.
- Tear up the makrut leaves. I couldn't get a hold of these, so used the zest of two limes and one lemon instead of 6 leaves.
- Add the coconut milk, mushrooms, fish sauce, chili, torn kaffir lime leaves and white pepper.
- Simmer for another 10 minutes. Ensure the chicken is cooked through.
- Take off the heat and optionally remove the lemongrass, makrut leaves and galangal. You can also keep them in and simply not eat them.
- Stir in the lime juice.
- Season to taste.
- Finish with some fresh coriander leaves.
- Enjoy!
- If you are tracking your food intake, remember to subtract the aromatics (lemongrass, galangal, makrut leaves), as you will not be consuming them.
