THAI CARROT SOUP WITH GINGER AND LEMONGRASS RECIPE

Steps:

• Pour 2 tablespoons oil into the bottom of a large soup pot. Add onion, garlic, galangal or ginger, lemongrass and fresh chili (or chili sauce). Stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the broth and rice. Bring to a boil.
• Add the carrots plus the spices (cumin, cardamom, nutmeg). Reduce heat to medium, cover, and continue cooking for another 15 minutes, or until carrots and rice are soft; brown rice will take longer to cook, and will absorb more liquid, so you may need to add a little more broth.
• Add the coconut milk and stir. Remove from the heat and puree the soup in batches in your blender. Return soup to the soup pot.
• Rewarm soup over medium heat. Add the fish sauce, soy sauce, and lime juice. Taste-test for salt, adding more fish sauce instead of salt, as needed. If your soup turns out too salty, add more lime juice. Add more fresh chili or chili sauce if not spicy enough.​
• Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with fresh coriander and basil.

LEMON-GRASS-GINGER SOUP WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat the stock over medium heat. Trim two of the lemon-grass stalks of their toughest outer layers, then bruise them with the back of a knife; cut them into sections, and add them to the stock with the ginger and about 1/4 of the minced chilies. Simmer for about 15 minutes, longer if you have the time. Peel all the hard layers off the remaining stalk of lemon grass, and mince its tender inner core.
• When you're ready to eat the soup, remove the lemon grass and ginger. Add 1 tablespoon nam pla and the chopped mushrooms. Taste the broth, and add more chilies if you like, as well as some salt if necessary. In the bottom of each of 4 warmed bowls, sprinkle a little each of the chile, lime leaves or zest, lime juice, cilantro and minced lemon grass.
• Ladle the soup into the bowls and add a teaspoon of nam pla to each bowl. Serve piping hot.
