Fremgangsmåde
Trin for trin
- 1
In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the coconut milk and chicken broth over medium heat.
Ca. 2 min.
- 2
Add the sliced galangal, bruised lemongrass, and torn kaffir lime leaves. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, but do not boil.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: Simmering gently infuses the broth with aromatics without causing the coconut milk to separate.
- 3
Add the sliced chicken to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes, until it is opaque and cooked through.
Ca. 7 min.
- 4
Stir in the mushrooms and cook for another 3 minutes until they have softened.
Ca. 3 min.
- 5
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the fish sauce and palm sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Ca. 2 min.
- 6
Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the fresh lime juice and the bruised Thai chilis, if using.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Adding lime juice off the heat preserves its bright, fresh flavor.

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro and a drizzle of chili oil, if desired.
Kokkens note: Advise guests not to eat the tough pieces of galangal and lemongrass.
