This was a delicious recipe. I loved all of the different veggies in this soup. I would prep as many of the vegetables as you can beforehand as well as the Thai Spice Blend. This will save you some time when cooking the entire soup. The best part is that the leftovers tasted even better the next day!
I didn’t have dried lemongrass or lemon rind when I was making the spice blend so I added fresh lemongrass to the soup while cooking it. It turned out really well. It took me way longer than 25 minutes prep time though. Haha.
Is the “basil” in the recipe Thai basil? It is not specified.
This Soup is absolutely delectable in comfort & flavor!!!
Looks yummy
Loved this. Am just adjusting to plant based and this was an awesome soup on a cold night. Loved the spices. Thanks
Where do I get thai spices?
If you click on the name it takes you to the recipe to make it
So good! I made it the second time with vegetables on hand and it was just as good; subbed onions for scallions, used up the baby bok choy I had on hand and used a sweet pepper instead of snow peas. The lime is not negotiable, adds a lot! I had banh pho rice noodles because that’s what I had and it was a little better with the udon noodles, they are firmer and don’t get mushy. Thank you for a great meal option!
This is so easy and phenomenal. We improvised on the veggies and used soba noodles because we had them. Amazing. A new favorite staple.
This was excellent. The flavors are fresh and bright and the veggies turn out crisp-tender and delicious. I served with some cilantro and chopped peanuts to finish it off. Super satisfying!
