    Vegan Thai Soup.- You only need one pot to make this delicious vegan Thai soup. It's made with easy to get ingredients and you can add your favorite veggies.

    We love Thai food, especially Alberto, he wants to go to South East Asia badly because of the weather, landscapes and of course because of the food. I prefer Japanese and Korean cuisine, although I could eat every Asian dish as long as it's vegan.

    I know winter is the perfect time to eat soup, but I make them all year long, even when it's really hot outside (105ºF  or 40ºC, I know, I'm crazy!) because I'm a soup-aholic.

    To make this soup, you only need one pot, so you spend less time cleaning, yay! Besides, I also adore this recipe because you can add literally every veggie you've got on hand. Coconut milk, Thai chili and tofu are my main ingredients, I always add them to this soup.

    This recipe is inspired by the traditional Tom Kha Gai soup, which is made with chicken and some veggies that are almost impossible to get here in Spain. I make my own version, which is so tasty and plant based, good for the planet, the animals and your health!

    Tips:

    • Use any veggies or sweeteners you want.
    • If you don't like spicy food, omit the chili. You can add any other type of fresh or dried chili or even some spicy sauce.
    • The coconut milk is the main ingredient, but if you don't like it, add more vegetable broth or some plant milk of your choice. Add less coconut milk and more broth if you prefer a lighter soup.
    • We added firm tofu, but any type of tofu will do.
    • Sea salt can be used instead of the tamari or soy sauce.
    • Lemon juice is also okay.
    • If you don't like cilantro, use some parley or any other fresh herb instead. You can also omit this ingredient.

      Making as a side dish to my Thai crunch salad, I figured it need more veggies, so I used what I has leftover from making the salad plus…green and red cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, green onions, baby bells, and carrot sticks. Added some Thai green chili paste as I didn’t have a Thai chili and it came out great. It was a great compliment to the salad! 🙋‍♀️🌹

      This is my go to recipe when I'm sick or on really cold days in the winter. Highly recommended 👌 I add Gochujang vegan chili paste for extra spice, it soothes the throat. I also add extra onion!

      This soup recipe is the easiest soup recipe I’ve ever made .. I added lemon grass… if not fresh you can get concentrated lemon grass in a tube from most supermarkets . Having spent time in Thailand over the last 30 years.. this soup has truly authentic flavours ‘YUMMY’

      Made a double batch of this tonight for dinner and it was delicious! Very light, fresh and healthy yet filled us right up. We skipped on the Thai chili because we didn't want it too spicy, just added a few dashes of red chili powder for a little kick. Great recipe, thank you!
