Tom
yum or tom yam is a type of hot and sour Thai soup usually
cooked with shrimp (prawn), Tom yum has its origin in Thailand.
Tom yum is
characterised by its distinct hot and sour flavours, with fragrant spices and
herbs generously used in the broth, the taste of tom yum is based on sour and spicy flavours.
In the modern popularized versions, the soup also contains mushrooms
usually straw mushrooms or oyster mushrooms. The soup is often topped with a generous sprinkling of
fresh chopped cilantro (coriander leaves). Sometimes Thai
chili jam (nam phrik phao in Thai) is added: this gives the soup a bright orange colour and
makes the chili flavour more pronounced.
Ingredients: Soybean oil, chilli, garlic, water,
onion, sugar, galangal, red chilli, lemongrass
