Chef tips
To deepen the flavors, I recommend sautéing the curry paste and ginger in the pot with a little oil before adding any liquid; this releases the aromatic oils and gives the soup a rich, full-bodied aroma. For a filling family meal, add wide rice noodles or seared tofu cubes. Kids will love helping by sprinkling fresh cilantro or crushed peanuts over their individual bowls.
