This menu is similar like Tom Yum soup but this will have less spicy without chili paste. The key of this menu is add galangal root more than lemongrass. Why? because this menu call "Tom Kha Gai" ต้มข่าไก่
Tom = soup
Kha = galangal
Gai = chicken
Yes! Kha is the main ingredient of this menu. And again Galangal's flavor is absolutely different from ginger root, do not use it to substitute Galangal ;)
