Instructions

  • Prepare the ramen noodles according to package instructions. Discard the seasoning packets. Cook to al dente, rinse with cold water and set aside.

Notes

If you can't find kaffir lime leaves or galangal, skip them. You can buy Nam Prik Pao from Amazon. You can't make a real and authentic Thai soup without it.
