Can you let me know which brand of thai red chilli paste you used? I see so many different ones like with soy bean oil. Thanks.

[@ChubbyWhale]

I used Maepranom red chili paste in this recipe. You can use other paste too, just adjust the lime juice, sugar and fish sauce accordingly!

[@umyousifnaduaran2313]

I can use coconut milk instead of milk? And also can I add a cilantro or coriander for garnish?

[@ChubbyWhale]

Yes you may use coconut milk although it will taste closer to tom kha gai (creamier soup). Sure thing, both sounds good for garnish :) hope it helps!

[@umyousifnaduaran2313]
