It's soo good, you should try it
hope you like it, :)


I LOVE tom kha kai.. I have a request for thai food tonite, this will fit right in. :)


I made this a couple of nights ago.. I think I'd try it again, but using 1 Tbs of fish sauce instead of 5. I ran out partway through and had 3 T, and that was way too much. I also added a teaspoon or two of chili oil at the end, rather than the chilies, similar to the way I've had it served in restaurants. It came out nicely. Thanks!
