Instructions Jump to Ingredients ↑

  1. Bring a pot of water to the boil and dunk in the rice noodles. Simmer until 'al dente', then drain. Rinse with cold water to keep from sticking and set aside.

  2. Place stock in a large soup pot. Bring to a boil and add the lemongrass, galangal or ginger, garlic, lime leaf or juice, chili, and shrimp paste. Boil 5 minutes.

  3. Add the chicken, celery, and carrot. Bring back to a boil, then reduce heat to medium or medium-low. Cover and simmer 5-7 minutes.

  4. Add the mushrooms and red pepper and continue simmering another 2-3 minutes.

  5. Reduce heat to low and add the coconut milk and fish sauce. Stir well. Taste-test the soup for salt and spice, adding more fish sauce if not salty or flavorful enough. If too salty, add 1 Tbsp. fresh lime or lemon juice. If too spicy, add more coconut milk. If you'd prefer it sweeter, add 1/2 to 1 tsp. sugar.

  6. To serve, portion out noodles into bowls, then ladle over the soup. Top with bean sprouts and fresh herbs. For an extra hit of flavor, you can also add a little Thai Nam Prik Pao Chili Sauce . ENJOY!
