TOM YUM GAI (THAI HOT & SOUR CHICKEN SOUP)

Steps:

• In a medium-sized soup pot, heat the peanut oil over medium-high heat. Saute the chicken and/or tofu, onion (not the green onions), half each of the ginger and lemongrass until the chicken is only a little bit pink and the onion translucent.
• Add the stock, fish sauce, remaining ginger and lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and (optional) serrano chilies. Simmer 10 - 15 minute covered on medium-low heat.
• Add the sugar, Nam Prik Pao, and sliced tomatoes. Simmer an additional 2 minute.
• Turn heat fully to low and add the lime juice to taste. Add half of the diced cilantro and the green onions, then let simmer on low for another few minutes.
• Sprinkle with the remaining cilantro and serve with additional lime juice.
