BEST EVER Tom Kha Gai | Thai Chicken Coconut Soup

OPEN for ingredients! Tom Kha Gai (tom ka kai/tom ka gai/ต้มข่าไก่) is a Thai chicken coconut soup. This is considered one of the more popular soups in Thailand, second only to Tom Yum. Unlike Tom Yum, which is a spicy, sour soup, Tom Kha Gai is a much milder, and creamier soup. Much like Tom Yum, Tom Kha Gai is served as a dish with rice, as opposed to being eaten by itself like a soup.
