Tom Kha Pla
Fish Coconut Soup
Tom Kha Pla - Fish Coconut Soup - There are two staple soups in Thai cuisine: tom yam is a hot spicy clear soup with elements of sweet and sour flavours added. Tom kha is a milder soup with coconut milk and galangal (kha) dominating rather than the fiery prik (chili) of the tom yam. Because they are milder,  tom kha's are often made with chicken or pork, but most common in Thailand are varieties using seafood (especially prawns, squid, or fish such as red snapper or catfish) or vegetables (especially medleys of mushrooms, tom kha hed). In Thailand the fish is cleaned and then poached whole (with the head), then removed from the soup and cut into bite sized pieces which are returned to the soup for serving. The method here is a little simpler, in that it doesn't involve handling the hot fish.
