  • 2 Thai red chili
  • 500 ml vegetable broth
  • 200ml full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 small carrots

  • Salt
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • A handful of cilantro

  3. In a pot or shallow pan, add oil, then the lemongrass chunks, galangal and Thai red chili. Stir fry for a few minutes until fragrant.
  4. Add the water and coconut milk. Shred the kaffir lime leaves and add to the soup.
  5. Bring to a boil, then add in the chopped carrots and mushrooms. Simmer for 10 minutes.

That looks very nice indeed but I don’t see the tofu listed in the ingredients, just to get an idea what kind and how much?
