    Authentic Thai Soup with Coconut Milk Better than at the Restaurant

    Prepare the best Thai coconut milk soup recipe in the world!

    Thai coconut milk soup is a fragrant and creamy soup emblematic of Thai cuisine. Specifically, this dish is particularly appreciated for its balanced flavors, velvety texture, and simplicity.

    Freeze this magnificent broth!

    Since this recipe yields a good amount of Thai soup, freeze any excess broth in individual containers. So, when you’re in need of a quick dinner, you’ll just have to reheat your broth and cook some rice vermicelli. You could also add some cooked chicken pieces to your soup.

    Moreover, if you’re preparing this recipe in advance, don’t cook your rice vermicelli. It’s preferable to cook them at the last minute before serving. This way, your vermicelli will have the best possible texture. You just need to calculate about 50g of vermicelli per serving of soup.
