I had no idea this Thai soup was so easy to make. I learned that ‘tom’ means to boil in Thai, and that’s exactly what the soup is. Stock boiled with aromatic herbs and some vegetables. The classic tom yum in Thailand often has prawns and straw mushrooms. I happened to have some mock vegan prawns in the freezer so I used them along with some canned champignons. You could put any vegetables or tofu in it though, the soup is the star.
