Coconut Soup (Tom Kha Gai)

For this dish, you can either stir fry your meat first or boil coconut cream first. I chose to boil cream first to get that coconut taste more vs a stir fry taste.

Ingredients:
Chicken Breasts
Scallops
Button Mushrooms (accidentally hit the wrong buttom and typed "buttom" in my video)
Oyster Mushrooms
Straw Mushrooms
Jalapeno
Green Onions
Cilantro
Lemon Grass
Lime Leaves
Coconut Cream
Chili Paste
Tamarind Base (or you can use lime juice)
Fish Sauce
Salt
Sugar
Chicken Soup Base (wouldn't need this if you replace water with chicken stock)

P.S. I'm sorry everyone, but I completely forgot to add 1 tsp of thinly sliced galangal (looks similiar to a ginger root) to this soup. It's added with the lemon grass and lime leaves.

I noticed that you use coconut cream instead of coconut milk. what is the difference between the two. I love this video by the way and Thank-You!!! :)

[forg3tm3not770]

@scruffy281 Thanks so much! I use cream for cooking and milk for desserts...can't really explain the difference but you can tell by the taste once you cook it.

What is the name of the song and the band singing it?

I can't stop listening to it, it's such a catchy song.

@dasTsuchan Hi! I'm sorry but I do not know the artist and title for this song. If you search "Youtube to mp3 converter" in Youtube, it will show you how to extract songs from videos such as mines.
