About Tom yam gai

Tom Yam Gai is a traditional Thai soup celebrated for its vibrant flavors and healthy ingredients. This dish combines tender chicken, fragrant lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, chili, and fish sauce, all simmered in a rich broth of lime juice and coconut milk or water. Often garnished with fresh herbs like cilantro, it offers a satisfying blend of spicy, sour, and savory notes. Originating in Thailand, Tom Yam Gai is a staple of Southeast Asian cuisine. Nutritionally, the soup is low in calories and rich in vitamins and minerals from its variety of herbs and vegetables. The chicken provides lean protein, while the spices and citrus components are known for their antioxidant properties. However, the sodium content from fish sauce and broth can be high, so moderation is key. With its bold flavors and nourishing ingredients, Tom Yam Gai is both a delicious and wholesome choice.
