I am obsessed that I can’t stop eating. It is super delicious, full of flavor from all the spices, and you can adjust the taste if you’d like. Spicy or mild, it doesn’t matter, this Thai dish is superb! I am glad that I discovered this amazing Thai Coconut Soup recipe. I have never eaten such excellent tasting soup. I tried different Thai recipes and this is by far the best I ever tasted! It is creamy because of the coconut milk with loads of shrimp and mushrooms. This Thai Coconut Soup is just perfect. Creamy and rich yet tangy and salty. My kind of soup that is to die for!
