Recipe Notes
Optional: Add cilantro leaves on top before service. For the creamy version, add 1.5 cups of evaporated milk at Step 13 with other ingredients.
Chef`s Tip: This is a spicy soup by nature. However, for a milder version. Cut the Thai chili pepper lengthwise and remove the seeds and the stem in the middle before adding to the pot.
