If you have ever been to Thailand, then in any case, faced with unique examples of Thai traditional cuisine. If you arrange something like an impromptu poll, many will immediately remember unusual fruits and will gladly make their own list of Thai delicacies that you will not find anywhere else except in this wonderful country.

Incredibly delicious, light and aromatic soup "Tom Yam"in my personal list, it is in the first place of honor primarily because I had the chance to try the original dish, and not its varieties, which flooded Thai street eateries.

I was so delighted with the taste of the classic "Tom Yama" that I begged for the recipe from the chef and, upon returning home, prepared the soup for my family. The dish caused a lot of positive emotions, so today I decided to prepare a step-by-step guide for the general public.

Did you know? Tom Yam soup is officially the national dish of Thailand and Laos, but it is actively offered in other countries, such as Indonesia, Singapore or Malaysia.

The difficulty lies in the fact that literally every chef from the above-named countries prepares this dish in his own way, sometimes adding completely unexpected and unusual ingredients for the standard recipe, which makes it hard to understand what the classic “Tom Yam” is.

Today we are preparing this amazing soup according to the most common and simplified recipe.

Time for preparing:  55 - 65 minutes.
Servings: 10 – 13.
Calories per 100 g:  220 - 320 kcal.

Kitchen tools

Predict in advance all the necessary equipment, utensils and appliances to be able to quickly and easily cook Thai Tom Yam soup: a saucepan or a stewpan with a nonstick coating, deep bowls (several pieces) with a capacity from 150 to 750 ml, teaspoons, tablespoons, cotton or linen towels, kitchen scales or measuring utensils, wooden spatula, sharp knife, kitchen tacks and a cutting board. Among other things, you may need a blender or food processor to speed up the preparation of ingredients for the soup.

Required Ingredients

• 300 ml of strong chicken broth;
• 150 ml of cream for sauces;
• 1 table. l fish sauce;
• 100 g shrimp;

• 5 mussels in the shell;
• 50 g of lemongrass;
• 20 grams of galangal root;

• 6 pieces royal oyster mushrooms;
• 1 medium lime;
• 6 - 8 cherry tomatoes.

Important!  If you want to get the most authentic Thai soup, then try to pick exactly the above ingredients,  This is especially true of cream: it should not be simple, but cream for sauces with fat content of 23%  - such can be found in large retail chains. On the contrary galangal root can be easily replaced with regular ginger, and royal oyster mushrooms can be replaced with champignons.

Additionally

• 2 small pods of dried red pepper;
• 1 tsp. Thai chili pasta;
• 4 leafs of Kaffir lime;

• 25 g fresh cilantro;
• 70 ml of soy sauce.

Cooking sequence

Training

Did you know? Some prefer to cook "Tom Yam" from mussels in the shell, without removing the shrimp tails. It seems to me that this practice is inconvenient and even aesthetically unacceptable for our country, because in this case you will have to eat the soup not with a spoon, but with your hands. However, do as you prefer.

First stage

Important! The main secret of Thai masters "Tom Yama" is that   Strong boiling of chicken broth should not be allowed  - It is best to constantly monitor this by putting the pan down for a few minutes to cool the liquid a little, and then return it to the stove again. By the way, the number of pods of red pepper can and be increased if you like sharper soups.

Second phase

Did you know? Seafood is prepared literally instantly, if you throw them into a boiling liquid, so do not cook the soup for too long after adding the last ingredients. Moreover, do not risk boiling tomatoes for more than a minute or two, as they can stratify and turn into tomato paste.

Done! Hurry to deliver the plates on the table, while you and your family are not knocked down by the wonderful, indescribable flavor of Thai soup. As you probably know, the most delicious in this dish is concentrated in the liquid, so make sure that everyone can enjoy the magical taste of the expertly cooked soup.

The dish does not need additional decoration,  as it has a very pleasant appearance, which is inappropriate to spoil any extraneous additives. Store Thai soup is not recommended, but if you really need, keep it in the refrigerator closer to the wall and no more than two days.

Sour and spicy Thai soup Tom Yam is popular not only in Thailand: this exotic first dish can now be found in the menu of Asian cafes and restaurants around the world. There are many types of soup: with seafood, chicken, fish, with or without coconut milk, etc. However, a constant component of the recipe is the sharp paste of the pits, which can be found in a specialty store or made on our own, following our example. The soup made according to this recipe certainly differs from the original, since it is adapted to our realities and homemade products, but nevertheless it turns out to be very tasty!

Do not forget that Thai soup is not cooked in large quantities as our traditional borscht. Tom Yam is not heated and is not left the next day, so if possible, prepare so much soup so that you and your loved ones can eat at once.

Ingredients:

• shrimp - 200 g;
• chicken fillet - 200 g;
• champignons - 150 g;
• coconut milk - 400 ml.

For pasta tom yam:

• chili - 2 large;
• garlic - 5 teeth;
• ginger root - about 3 cm;
• lemon juice (or lime) - 2 tbsp. spoons;
• zest of 1 lemon;
• vegetable oil - 2 tbsp. spoons;
• sugar - 1 tbsp. spoon.

1. Let's start with the preparation of the main component of the soup - pasta tom yam. For this, peeled garlic teeth are chopped into thin plates. Chilli washed and cut into rings.
   
   
2. Put garlic in a saucepan with hot vegetable oil. While stirring, fry on moderate heat in just a few seconds.
   
   
3. We place golden garlic plates in a hotel dish, and put hot pepper rings into the empty stewpan. Pass a couple of minutes.
   
   
4. Prepare the remaining components of the paste. Rub lemon rind on a fine grater (we need only the yellow peel - we don’t touch the white part). Peel the ginger root and also rub it with small chips.
   
   
5. Roast garlic and chilli rings are ground with a blender, and then again put in a saucepan with fragrant oil. There we also add zest and ginger, sprinkle with sugar, pour in lemon or lime juice. Thoroughly mix the contents of the skillet, and then simmer on low heat for 3-5 minutes, not forgetting to stir.
   
   
6. Next, we shift the mixture into the bowl of the blender, grind to obtain the most homogeneous mass. As a result, we get a bright orange "puree". This is the pasta tom yam, which is the basis of the eponymous first course.
   
   
   
7. Go to the cooking soup. Chicken fillet fill with water and boil until cooked. In parallel, we wash and chop mushrooms with thin plates.
   
   
8. Now about the shrimp. If you are familiar with Thai cuisine, you probably know that Thais, as a rule, add unpeeled seafood to the soup. Therefore, if you want to get as close as possible to the original, you can not clean the shrimp. We decided to make a “domesticated” version of the soup, so seafood was nevertheless cleaned, leaving the tails.
   
   
9. Ready fillets of poultry extract from the broth. Cool, chop chicken meat into medium-sized pieces.
   
   
10. Measure out 400 ml of chicken broth, bring to a boil, then mix with coconut milk and Thai pasta. Please note that the soup is very spicy! If you are not a fan of spice, do not immediately add the entire portion of the paste, but do it gradually, each time trying to taste the broth. While stirring, bring the liquid to a boil and boil over moderate heat for a couple of minutes, and then skip through a fine sieve so that the finished soup turns out to be uniform and beautiful. In the filtered broth we load mushrooms.
    
    
11. Next lay the shrimp.
    
    
12. Add chicken meat, cook tom yam at low boil for 2-3 minutes. Remove the sample, if necessary, salt the soup, and then remove the pan from the heat.
    
    
13. Serve sour-spicy first dish right away. To give the soup some bright colors, you can add fresh greens to the plates.

Having been in overseas countries and having tried everything, I can say with confidence that Tom Yam is the best soup I've ever tasted. In Thailand, it is prepared using local ingredients, in Russia there is a mass of analogues, and of them we will prepare this wonderful dish. Usually they write a recipe for two to four servings, but this is not our method, so we cook 3.5 liters of narcotic potion, no less!

Preparation + Description of the ingredients for the soup
  Before cooking the ingredients, pour 2.5 liters of filtered water into the pan and throw the chicken into it, i.e. cook chicken broth. All as usual bring to a boil, remove the foam, cook over low heat. The broth must be rich, so the meat must be with bones, so-called soup set will do.

Shrimps should be large, the larger the better, the octopus tentacle and scallop meat are also very well suited, it is such a clam. Wash my shrimp, pour hot water on it, clean chitin, everything except the tail, as in the picture (do not ask why, just like that)
  We clean the fish from scales (it is better to leave the skin), finely cut. The fish is added to Tom-Yam for nazhoristost, in principle, you can do without it, but, believe me, it always turns out tastier. Mushrooms and greens, clean, finely cut. Instead of oyster mushrooms, champignons are quite suitable, just don’t take the frozen ones, they don’t give any flavor at all, and this soup is very important.

Now go to the extremely dangerous occupation, the preparation of chili peppers. It needs to be crushed, as an option to grind with a mixer or similar device. Severe men, like me, choose Ikeevsky garnodavku. Pepper wash, remove the kernels, cut into pieces that can fit in the garlic. It is best to work with chili in polyethylene gloves to avoid burns from burning juice. If you cut without gloves, then try not to wet your fingers too much in concentrated juice - burn yourself. If you decide to use garlic sauce, then when squeezing the pepper, turn away to the other side, otherwise a stream of pepper concentrate in your eyes will make you a day. Garlic skip through the garlic. Finely chop the onion. Ginger cut into large slices to make it easier to catch then from the soup, eat them not worth it. The ingredients are ready, go directly to the cooking.

Cooking soup
  Run the mushrooms in the pan with broth

Pour vegetable oil into the pan and fry the onion until golden brown, then spread it into a container for grinding.
In the same pan fry the chopped chilli, spread in a container with onions. Do the same with garlic. Crush everything and add 10 spoons of soy sauce. Return the mixture to the pan, fry for 2-3 minutes.

We shift our burning mixture to the pan with the broth and mushrooms. Run the shrimp and salmon (or trout). Then we send coarsely chopped ginger to the same place. Next, just above the saucepan, remove the lime zest from the lime with a regular float, then cut each lime in half and squeeze the juice into the saucepan without residue, discard the pressed halves, as an option, boil them a little, then catch and discard. We add salt and sugar on a vskus, we try, we add still.

Cook for another 5 minutes and pour in the cream, then add the green onion and cilantro green, about half of what we bought, the other half will need to be added to each portion separately.

Tom Yam is usually served with a bowl of steamed rice (without bread). It is eaten like this: we spoon some rice with a spoon and we also scoop up the soup, and send it to the right place. Tip: if Tom Yam turned out to be wildly spicy, then still eat it, at whatever cost! To reduce the sharpness, you can add more cream, they soften the taste very well. It is also recommended not to eat soup from a spoon, you can choke. It is better to send a spoon in your mouth, and taste better feel.
  So, the soup is ready. According to this recipe, the soup is very tasty.
