Tom Yum Soup with Mushrooms and Baby Corn
by Tarla Dalal

One of Thailand’s most famous soups, the Tom Yum Soup is famous for its unique spicy, sweet and sour flavour. An assortment of veggies adds more volume and crunch to the soup, which derives its fantastic flavour from a combination of ingredients like spring onions, ginger, pepper and herbs.

Although it is a wonderful addition to the menu on any day, the Tom Yum Soup with Mushrooms and Baby Corn is sure to be all the more enjoyable on a cold and rainy day because of the abundance of ingredients like lemongrass, ginger and pepper, which soothe and rejuvenate your body.

Serve along with Thai Starters and Noodles .

This recipe is outstanding. It has a very strong flavour of lemongrass and garlic. The seasoning cube added to it just a blast of flavours in the mouth. Baby corn and carrot are slight crunchy and that is what is giving a great mouthfeel. In all a great recipe.

Love good recipes

Excellent clear healthy vegetarian soup with a nice blend of mushroom and baby corn. Love the flavour of lemon grass and coriander blending in.
