Steps:

• Cook as much Jasmine rice as needed.
• Pour the chicken broth into a large pot over medium heat.
• Shake the coconut milk thoroughly and add to the pot.
• Add sliced mushrooms. (You can add chili oil now or anytime following. The longer it is mixing, the stronger the flavor).
• Cut lemon grass into ~1 inch long pieces. Set aside. Thinly slice ginger. Set aside.
• Cut a 10in x 10in square of cheesecloth. Place the lemon grass & ginger into the cheesecloth and tie closed. Drop the sachet into the pot.
• Let simmer for ~15 minutes (usually the time I use to peel the shrimp and cut them in half).
• Add Chili oil if you haven't already.
• Add fish sauce, if desired.
• Add shrimp. Cook ~3 minutes more (until shrimp are pink).
• Take off the heat, remove the lemon grass/ginger sachet, and add lime juice.
• Serve with desired amount of Jasmine rice.

Steps:

• Bring coconut milk and chicken stock to a boil in a pot over high heat. Reduce heat to medium. Add cilantro, lemongrass, galangal, Thai chile peppers, and kaffir lime leaves; simmer for 5 minutes.
• Increase heat to medium-high heat. Add chicken; simmer until no longer pink in the center, about 7 minutes. Stir in cabbage; cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove soup from heat; stir in lime juice and fish sauce.

Steps:

• To velvet chicken: Lightly beat egg white and combine with cornstarch. Toss the chicken strips or cubes in this mixture, then cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Heat the water and oil in a pot or a wok, until it's hot enough that a piece of chicken floats to the top when you put it inches Put the chicken in, in shifts if you have to to keep it from crowding, and cook until it's white, about 30 seconds. If you're not using the chicken straight away, refrigerate it until you do.
• To prepare the soup: Heat coconut milk and chicken broth to boiling.
• Turn down heat, add fish sauce, chili sauce, ginger, lemon and lime juices, and lemon zest, chicken, and mushrooms and simmer for a couple minutes.
• Add chopped green onions and chopped cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Dice the chicken into bite size cubes. Marinade with oyster sauce. Leave in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Slice the ginger up into really thin strips.
• Remove the outer leaves from the lemon grass until you get to the soft bit in the center. Now take a rolling pin or something heavy and batter the lemongrass.
• Place the water in a pot and start to heat, while the water is heating, juice your lime. When the water is getting hot, put the lime juice, lemongrass, galangal and fish sauce inches And bring to the boil.
• Once it starts to boil add the chicken and coconut milk, stir and bring it back to boil.
• Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for about 2 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Keep stirring whilst doing this to avoid a skin forming.
• Serve the Tom Kha Gai when ready and garnish with the coriander and eat with rice.
