This easy recipe brings the 'YUM' IN TOM YUM SOUP
In this recipe ready-made tom yum paste is dressed up with the delicious additions of zesty lime spicy chilies vibrant lemongrass and salty fish sauce. Recipe creator Nader says "I've simplified a sometimes complex recipe for people like me who might struggle to find some of the original ingredients."
Skip the shrimp and instead make a tom yum soup full of vegetables like mushrooms bok choy and carrots. Don’t skip the harder-to-find ingredients like kaffir lime leaves or galangal (a cousin of ginger); these can be found at your local Asian market and add a bold bright flavor.
This simple version of tom yum soup is a knockoff of a restaurant favorite and is easily substituted for egg whites. The recipe calls for shredded chicken but many reviewers have found success with shrimp.
