TOM YUM SOUP WITH VEGETABLES
Thai Tom Yum soup is a delicious and aromatic Thai soup. I crave this soup ALL of the time. I have brought this to parties and people always rave about it. Now friends always ask me to make it whenever we're getting together. I made it completely from scratch for years. A few years ago, I started using the paste and prefer it. I find it to be more flavorful. Tom Yum is distinctly known for it's hot and sour flavor. My version maintains the distinct hotness and sourness of the traditional soup but it also is slightly sweet and spicy. I make a side of jasmine rice and serve it with the soup. I noted the ingredients and amounts I use however, I encourage additions, deletions and alterations. I don't care for the mushrooms and I love broccoli which may come as a surprise to some. Broccoli is not a traditional component of this recipe but it's healthy and I find that it goes nicely with the broth. Play and have fun!

VEGETABLE TOM YUM SOUP
This is a vegetable version of the classic Thai Tom Yum soup. You can find lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and galangal (a close relative of ginger) at any Asian supermarket. If you can't find the lime leaves, you can add extra lime juice to taste, but do try to find the lime leaves because they make a big difference. It tastes just like my local Thai restaurant!

TOM YUM SOUP WITH TOFU AND VERMICELLI
Tom yum is a hot and sour soup from Thailand with lively notes of lemongrass, makrut lime leaves and galangal. There are many variations of this iconic soup, including tom kha (coconut milk and dominant galangal notes), tom yum pla (fish) and tom yum gai (chicken). This version is vegetarian, hence not traditional, but it is reminiscent of tom yum koong nam khon, a creamy version that uses canned evaporated milk. (Use coconut milk if you prefer). Tom yum is often moored by nam prik pao, a staple Thai chile paste of roasted chiles, shrimp paste and fish sauce, but in this recipe, a combination of soy sauce, lime, garlic and sambal oelek provides a similar umami kick. The addition of vermicelli and tofu is also unconventional, but it turns this soup into a hearty, quick and comforting weeknight dinner.
