Tom yum soup is one of the most well known Asian soups. Tom yum soup may be prepared in a variety of ways. This dish was made as basic as possible. I used tom yum paste and Thai chilli oil paste from the shop. I've added a few more herbs, such as galangal, lemongrass, and kaffir lime leaves, to give the soup more flavor. 

I also added a splash of evaporated milk to make it more creamy. You may leave out the evaporated milk if you like a clear soup. If you can't locate all of the components, simply substitute herbs from your local market. The herb components in tom yum paste are already plenty. Tom yum paste and chilli oil paste are available at most Asian grocery stores and supermarket Asian counters.

Using a sharp knife, cut the chicken into thin pieces. Cut the tomato into tiny pieces and halve the mushroom. Galangal should be cut into thin slices, and lemongrass should be gently bruised and sliced into two pieces.

• Cut the red chilies in half and discard the center section of the kaffir lime leaves After that, add the chicken pieces and the mushrooms. Simmer for another minute.

• Fill the saucepan with water and chicken stock. Bring the water to a boil, then add the lemongrass, galangal, tom yum paste, and chili paste. Stir well and bring to a boil for a few seconds.

• After that, toss in the prawns and tomatoes. Stir in the fish sauce and sugar well. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the prawns are done.

Stir in the evaporated milk and cook for another minute. If you like the transparent soup, you may omit this step. Red chilies and kaffir lime leaves should be added at this point. Remove from heat and let aside for 1-2 minutes. Then squeeze half of a lime into the mixture. Taste the soup and adjust the salt, sugar, or lime juice to your liking.
