What is galangal and why is it important in Tom Kha?
Galangal is a fragrant root similar to ginger but more citrusy and peppery, and it gives Tom Kha its signature Thai aroma that sets it apart from other coconut soups.
How do you make Tom Kha taste like a restaurant version at home?
For a more authentic finish, add fresh lime juice and a handful of herbs just before serving, which brightens the creamy broth and sharpens the flavour.
What dishes pair well with Tom Kha soup?
Tom Kha is often served alongside jasmine rice, Thai style salads, or simple stir fried vegetables, making it a great starter or lighter main meal.
