In fact, Tom Kha is the creamy version of Tom Yum I’m sharing today if you use the coconut milk option instead of evaporated milk! The soup broth flavour base is the same, but the key difference is that Tom Kha has chilli paste and a splash of coconut milk added. The evaporated milk really doesn’t add flavour, it just changes the appearance. The creamy version has a slightly bigger flavour punch because of the addition of the chilli paste. I’ve no idea which is more popular, and truthfully I like both equally so I don’t play favourites. Two types of Tom Yumįirst up, let me explain that there’s two different types of Tom Yum Soup:Ĭlear Tom Yum Soup (Tom Yum Goong Nam Sai) andĬREAMY Tom Yum Soup (Tom Yum Goong Nam Khon) which is made from the clear version with the addition of evaporated milk and a good hit of Thai Chilli Paste. Simple to make using whole fresh OR peeled frozen prawns / shrimp, this is astonishingly easy to make once you’ve gathered the ingredients! Bonus: Tom Yum is probably the healthiest Thai dish ever, clocking in at just 156 calories!Īsian food has some of the best soups in the world! From the rich coconut Laksa Noodle Soup to Vietnamese Beef Pho, and Japanese Ramen, there’s a vast variety and Thailand’s Tom Yum Soup is right up there with the best of them.Īnd the bonus?
