Soup

Easy version of tom kha gai soup. (chicken coconut soup). Rich and decadent tasting but still healthy for you! Serve it with some rice. The rice can be brown or white, jasmine or short grained (aka sticky rice). Can't always get the missing ingredients, so this is a good way to get the basic flavor of tom kha gai when missing galangal and a few other herbs. Ginger replaces the galangal (approximate), removed the fish sauce to cut back on sodium-but you can always add a few drops to get that extra taste it imparts, lime juice (real) in place of lemongrass and lime leaves. FAST soup, and makes everyone at work want some!
