This is just like it tastes in great Thai restaurants. My whole family raved about it. I followed the recipe to a tee for the more traditional thom kha gai. Nice specific directions! Wonderful!!

I served this as part of a Thai dinner and everyone loved it, even the guy who always complains that my food is too spicy. He was also amazed that he didn't notice the flavor of the coconut milk, as he does not like it. We did not feel the need to add any lime juice at the end, but we used pretty big and very juicy limes for zesting and juicing. I loved the fact that I didn't have to pick the cilantro leaves from the stems, a duty I truly hate. This soup rocked!!!

This was fabulous.I served satay chicken with it. I didn't put any extra lime in it. This is as good as what you buy in a thai restaurant.

I left out the shrimp paste and used equal parts coconut milk and chicken broth. And just used the 'shrooms. The only problem was that I decided to halve the recipe, and the two of us finished it so quickly we pined for more. SO good. We did need more food afterwards, not sure if you can say it's a complete meeal. Close, though.
