Khao tom is a staple in Thailand, being widely eaten as a breakfast dish as well as an accompaniment to lunch and dinner. It can be cooked plain (without the shrimp), or as here with shrimp. It can also be made by simple substitution with chicken, pork, or any combination of seafood that you have to hand. It can be made with cooked left over chicken/shrimp etc, or as here with fresh ingredients. It is however almost always made from pre-cooked rice from a day before (though not always left-overs: the cook will often simply ladle enough rice from the electric rice pot to make the soup shortly before serving). Made with chicken it is a popular meal for recovering patients who still feel a little queasy.

2 cups water
1 cup cooked Thai jasmine rice
1 cup thinly sliced Chinese celery (including the leaves), or spring onion
half teaspoon preserved cabbage
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon Maggi seasoning
1 tablespoon garlic, thinly sliced
Shiitake mushrooms, sliced (optional)
1 teaspoon Thai pepper powder
fried garlic to taste, and a half teaspoon of salted radish always adds a nice taste

You also need 4 large (8 to the pound) shrimp, or half a pound of smaller ones, shelled, deveined, and butterflied, or half a pound of other flavor ingredient.

skinnny-mini:

• 6 large green onions
• 2 green peppers
• 1 or 2 cans of tomatoes (diced or whole)
• 3 carrots
• 1 container (10 oz. or so) Mushrooms
• 1 bunch celery
• 1/2 head cabbage
• 1 package Lipton soup mix
• 1 or 2 cubes bouillon (optional)
• 1 can (48oz) V8 juice (optional)

Season to taste with salt, pepper, parsley, garlic powder, etc.

Directions:

• Slice green onions, put in pot and start to sauté with cooking spray.
• Cut green pepper stem end off and cut in half, take seeds and membrane out. Cut the green pepper into bite size pieces and put in pot.
• Take the outer leafs layers off the cabbage, cut into bite size pieces, put in pot.
• Clean carrots and celery and cut into bite size pieces, put in pot.
• Slice mushrooms into thick slices (otherwise they will disappear in the soup), put in pot.
• If you would like a spicy soup, add a small amount of cayenne pepper (red pepper) now (1/3 teaspoon is quite a bit as the soup will get spicier as it cooks further).
• You can use beef or chicken bouillon cubes for seasonings. They have all the salt and flavors you will need.
• Use about 12 cups of water (or 8 cups and the V8 juice), cover and put heat on low. Let soup cook for a long time (two hours works well).
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Eat all the soup you want, whenever you want for the next 7 days.

…………… I wonder how many calories this is… :) I’ve been told cabbage soup aids in weight loss.

There’s a wonderful stand in Ann Arbor that’s only open a few hours a day for lunch and the line for it is a block long! It’s called Le Dog. Supposedly they have the best lobster bisque, but I’ve yet to try it! I always miss the days they serve it, but I’ve tried their other soups and I have to say, it’s the best soup I’ve had anywhere!

Lasagna Soup

dezlicious:

Ingredients
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
3 garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 16-ounce jar medium salsa (I like Green Mountain Gringo)
1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro stems
1 quart vegetable stock
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup brown rice
1/2 cup black beans
1/2 cup fresh, canned, or frozen corn
1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro leaves
Two 8-inch tortillas, sliced into 1/4 inch strips
1 avocado, diced (optional)
1/4 cup jack or mild cheddar cheese (optional)
1 limes, cut into wedges (optional)

In a medium Dutch oven, saute the onion in 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and the cumin, and saute for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

In the meantime, puree the salsa and cilantro stems in a small food processor. Add to the pan along with the veggie stock and the salt. Bring to a boil. Stir in the rice and the beans. Turn the heat down to medium-low, cover and cook for 35-40 minutes, until the rice is tender. Stir in the corn and the cilantro, and taste for seasoning.

Preheat the broiler.

Toss the tortillas with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and arrange in one layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Broil in the oven until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Set aside.

Ladle the soup into bowls or mugs, and top with the tortilla strips, lime wedges, avocado and cheese (if using). Enjoy!
