I love Thai chicken soup. It's my favorite dish at the Thai restaurant. Never tried to make it myself... What kind of coconut milk do you use? I know there are different kinds and some are extremely fatty.0

I usually just use whatever's cheapest at the supermarket, but you could use reduced-fat coconut milk if you wanted to lower the fat content, I don't think it would affect the taste much.0

I made this soup yesterday. I was forced to do a couple of minor changes because I didn't have/get all the products. It was heaven!! I've been craving a soup like this for a while but I rarely let myself get one because they seem to be loaded with sodium and calories. This one tasted fresh, light and divine and it was so quick, too. Highly recommended to all Tom Kha Gai fans Thanks Kathryn!0
