Instructions
Broth
- On medium-low heat, in a large pot pour all the oil in the pot.
- In the pot add the lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and galangal in and stir until fragrant (~5mn). Do not let burn.
- Pour the 24oz of cold water into the pot and wait for it to come close to boiling. About 10mn.
- Pour all of the Coco Rico and the chicken broth into the pot.
- Immediately after add the Instant Hot & Sour Paste Thai Tom Yum, fried chili in oil, MSG, chicken bouillon powder, white sugar, Vietnamese fish sauce, spicy chili crisp, and salt. Let boil.
- Once done, turn off the heat and add lime juice to taste. Optionally scoop out the fragrants. Don't eat those at least.
- Serve the broth in a hotpot or in separate bowls. Your choice!
Noodles
- Depends on the packaging.
Sides
- Any meats make sure they are thinly sliced. Otherwise they take too long to cook.
