CAMBODIAN LEMONGRASS CHICKEN SOUP
My Khmer sons both love this soup at our favorite Cambodian restaurant, Chez Sovan, in San Jose, CA. This is my attempt to match the flavors at home. My oldest son's comment on trying the soup was, Mmm so close, make some more! Serve with warm baguette.

CHICKEN LEMONGRASS SOUP
This soup is what my Mom always made for me when I was sick...I called it the Thai version of Chicken Noodle Soup. The way I always ate this soup is to have the soup in a bowl and then a bowl of rice, then eat a spoonful of rice then down it with some soup. The recipe is written how I enjoy it, Hot and Sour

Steps:
- Boil the chicken stock in a large pot with the Tom-Yum Paste.
- Add in the uncooked chicken and keep at a low boil till the chicken is cooked half through.
- Bruise the lime leaves by rubbing them in your hand a bit to bruise them so they give off more flavor and aroma.
- Bruise the lemongrass by hitting it with the flat side of a knife, as you would with garlic.
- Throw the lime leaves and lemon grass into pot along with the fish sauce,lime juice, and chili flakes.
- Cook on med-low for an hour- 45 min or as long as it takes the chicken to completly cook.
- You can cook the chicken till its very tender and almost falls off the bone if you like --
- Once ready serve hot, in a bowl with another bowl of rice.
- *** ALL ingredients (lime juice, fish sauce, etc) can be increased or decreased to your liking -- I prefer this soup to be really sour, lemon/lime tasting and a bit spicy, while others may like more salty (add more fish sauce then) and sour flavor.

LEMON GRASS CHICKEN SOUP
This soup is easy to make, hearty and satisfying. This soup is rather mild, but chose to leave it that way in deference to those who don't eat spicy food. If you were serving a large group with different tastes, that would be a consideration. I use about double the lemon grass, fish sauce, peppers and cilantro, putting half the peppers and cilantro in the soup and the other half for each person to add. If you can find them, Thai chili peppers are hotter than jalapenos!

Steps:
- In an 1 to 10-quart pan, bring broth to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, pull off and discard course outer layers from lemon grass and trim off and discard stem ends. Cut each stalk into about 3-inch lengths. With the flat side of a knife, lightly crush lemon grass and ginger. Cut one or two chilies in half lengthwise (use two if you'd like it spicy); stem remaining chilies (seed, if desired, for less heat), finely chop and reserve. Add lemon grass, ginger, and halved chilies to boiling broth. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, rinse cabbage and cut into shreds about 1/4 inch wide and 2 to 3 inches long. Rinse mushrooms, trim off and discard stem ends and discolored parts, and slice lengthwise 1/4 inch thick. Peel carrots and slice 1/4 inch thick. Rinse chicken and cut into 1/4-inch thick slices 1 1/2 to 2 inches long.
- With a slotted spoon, remove and discard lemon grass, ginger and chilies from broth.
- Add cabbage, mushrooms, carrots, and garlic to broth; cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until carrots are tender when pierced, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Add chicken and tomatoes with their juice. Cover and cook over high heat until chicken is no longer pink in the center (cut to test). This will take about 3 to 5 minutes. Add lemon juice and fish sauce to taste. Sprinkle with green onions.
- Place rice, lemon wedges, cilantro and chopped chilies in separate bowls and offer with soup to add to taste.

LEMONGRASS CHICKEN SOUP
In Chinese cultures, lemongrass and cilantro are considered yin ingredients -- cooling elements that are ideal on hot days. The subtle heat of ginger and chile, combined with the bright aroma of fresh mint, enlivens this lightened rendition of chicken soup.
