Delicious Tom Kha Gai Recipe - with Benja Chicken

[@atmmanhattan]

Velveting is the only way. No going back now. Either you do or you don’t and if you don’t the chicken turns out inferior. Thanks for the priceless tip.

[@ieatishootipost]

Glad you agree!

[@emmeliedupuy]

Never made a soup this good in my life before, thank you!

[@ieatishootipost]

Oh! Glad you like it!

Must compliment you, Doc Leslie. Your presentation is simple, easy to follow. Very encouraged by your recipes. Tried all your recipes. Haianese Satay is very detail and complete. Good contribution. You make ordinary cooks better.

[@ieatishootipost]

Wow, thanks Eric! Those words of affirmation mean a lot to us!

[@Potomacstud]

I love this doc ..what a gem!

[@ieatishootipost]

Glad to know that!

Good recipe! I myself don't use onions, but I've seen it done. The shallots would be especially nice. Tom kha gai is my favorite dish in the world. If I could only eat one food the rest of my life, it would be this. When I make a big pot to share with others, I make it without any peppers because I have my Thai pepper sauce and chili flakes for my serving, which I like fiery hot.

[@ieatishootipost]

Sounds good! Thanks for sharing

I don't even know English 😅 here we go translating the recipe to make it for my German family, I made it and as the main dish there was fish ❤for me the soup was delicious, they are my guinea pigs in the culinary laboratory 😂... thank you ❤ success and health to you and your team 😊

[@lukelucy1980]

Awesome Thank You !! Is it possible that another starch flour will work the same as corn flower? Such as Tapioca, Rice Flour, Cassava etc?

[@ieatishootipost]

Yes, they should work as well.

[@rastas000]

I don’t often save videos for later!! This is going to be a camping/holiday dish for me.

[@LeslieTay]

Great! I never thought of it as a camping dish, but yes it would be awesome to cook over an open fire!

[@joeloop4314]

i did it, it was amazing!!! Carried me through my infection

[@ieatishootipost]

Glad you liked it!

[@noproblematallmate]

Egg white is alkaline which actually tenderises the chicken if you leave it in it for long enough.

[@ieatishootipost]

Thanks for the tip!

[@reasonablematic]

Which brand of shrimp paste is this PLS!!! ❤️

💜💜💜💜👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@LeslieTay]

Thanks for the thumbs up!

[@derektham4705]

Dr Leslie, where did you get the Thai Shrimp Paste? Had a hard time looking for it

[@ieatishootipost]

Thai supermarket at Golden Mile.

[@reasonablematic]

@@ieatishootipostwhat brand please for us foreigners that watch ❤️

[@mollybuttons9365]

Chef, this is my fave soup. ?? Would it not be better to strain the lemongrass and galangal and kefir leaves and then add the mushrooms, milk ect? The lemongrass and galangal are very woody and tough to eat. Just a thought.

[@ieatishootipost]

Yes I suppose you can especially if it’s for fine dining but I actually enjoy sucking on the lemongrass and galangal 😅

[@viviencetay3623]

Can I use Tom Yum paste instead of shrimp paste as hard to find Thai shrimp paste

[@ieatishootipost]

You can leave it out if you don't have it. A bit of Tom Yum is fine too.

ถือว่าใกล้เคียงกับต้มข่าไก่นะคะ แต่ดูผิดสูตรและไม่น่ากินค่ะ 1. ต้มข่าไก่จะใส่เห็ดหรือไม่ใส่ก็ได้ อันนี้ถูกต้องค่ะ 2. ต้มข่าไก่ ใช้มะขามเปียกค่ะ ไม่ใช่น้ำมะนาว 3. ต้มข่าไก่ ควรใช้เนื้อติดหนังค่ะ จะได้มีความมันผสมในน้ำแกง 4. ต้มข่าไก่เป็นแกงรสเผ็ดอ่อนๆ ฉะนั้นต้องมีพริกแดงและพริกแห้งโรยค่ะ 5. ต้มข่าไก่ควรใส่ผักชีฝรั่งลงไปด้วยค่ะ 6. ต้มข่าไก่ ใส่ใบมะกรูดไม่ต้องเยอะขนาดนั้นค่ะ 7. ต้มข่าไก่ ไม่ควรใส่มันกุ้ง ไม่ใช่ต้มยำกุ้งนะคะ ถ้าอยากได้สีควรใส่พริกเผาค่ะ

[@ieatishootipost]

Thanks for your tips! Translated: It is considered close to Tom Kha Kai. But it looks wrong in the recipe and it's not appetizing. 1. Tom Kha Gai with or without mushrooms. This is correct. 2. Boiled galangal with chicken. Use tamarind. not lemon juice It will have oiliness mixed in the soup. 4. Tom Kha Gai is a mild spicy curry. So must have red chilli and dried chili sprinkles

[@learn-live-love]

What do you call chicken stock cubes in thai language? Something like khanoe/kha-no ?

[@ieatishootipost]

Not sure!

[@7up113]

Great Video! Could i know what portable gas stove you are using please

[@ieatishootipost]

It’s an Iwatani gas stove that you can get from Razorsharp or online bit.ly/LazIwantaniGasStove

[@7up113]

@@ieatishootipost thank you!!

[@choongjiancheong8923]

How come you didn’t use market chicken ?

[@ieatishootipost]

Because the post was sponsored by Benja and the breast meat for Benja is actually larger and juicy

[@celestialstar124]

Actually my favorite chicken part is chicken breast n the part i hate most are wings.

[@LeslieTay]

Oh, so you will love this recipe!

Where is the mushrooms

[@ieatishootipost]

Not easy to get the straw mushrooms that they use in Thailand, so I left them out.

[@balbinastudans2514]

Okay

Super!!!!
