@beautifflyeats Tom Kha Gai with Noodles | Thai Coconut Chicken Soup with Noodles Summer is almost over and I am so ready for a cozy noodle soup. Tom Kha Gai is a Thai hot and sour chicken soup with a coconut milk base. It’s aromatic and creamy with a perfect balance of sweet, sour, and an umami flavor. You can eat it with rice, or noodles like I did. The best part about this dish? It takes less than 30 minutes to make.
