- Thai tom yum goong (ต้มยำกุ้ง) is one of the most widely available and loved dishes in Thailand. Check out my full Thai tom yum soup recipe here: wp.me/p4a4F7-2uc
At nearly every Thai restaurant you go to, both in Thailand and outside of Thailand, there will be some form of tom yum on the menu. Tom yum is really like a mix of different ingredients, all boiled together into a soup, and flavored with a trio of Thai herbs: lemongrass, galangal, and kaffir lime leaves. Without this trio of herbs, tom yum (ต้มยำ) would not have that earthy undertone of herb flavor to it. Sure the other ingredients, like chilies, shrimp, onions, garlic, fish sauce, and lime juice are also essential in this recipe, but without the trio of herbs, you wouldn't have an authentic version of this soup.
So anyway, it’s actually quite easy to make this Thai tom yum soup recipe as long as you have all the ingredients available. I was in the United States a few months ago, and I was able to find all the ingredients at the local Asian supermarkets - so hopefully you should have any trouble finding them either.
If you’ve eaten Thai tom yum soup before, you might already know that there are two different versions of the dish - there’s a creamy version, which in Thai is known as tom yum goong nam khon (ต้มยำกุ้งน้ำข้น) and there a clear version which is known as Tom yum goong nam sai (ต้มยำกุ้งน้ำใส). Both types of soup are equally common in Thailand, and they are both loved throughout the country. The creamy version of the soup, doesn’t use coconut milk to make it creamy, but rather evaporated milk is what gives it that creaminess. You can try both versions of this recipe to see which one you prefer. Overall, I personally prefer the clear version, partly because it’s less rich, and I also like that the sourness and spiciness of the clear soup is usually stronger. Milk tends to mellow out the flavors and calm them down. However, I like both versions of tom yum, and you should try them both. I’m using shrimp in this recipe, making tom yum goong (ต้มยำกุ้ง), but you can substitute shrimp for something else, like chicken or fish. I also really love tom yum made with fish as it gives the soup a beautiful oily fish flavor to it.
One of the things I love about making Thai tom yum soup is that it doesn’t take very long to prepare. If you have all your ingredients available, all you have to do is slice everything up, put on your pot of boiling water, let the ingredients cook, and once your shrimp and other ingredients are done, the soup is done.
Probably the most important time I can give you for this Thai tom yum soup recipe is to turn off the heat of the soup before you add your lime juice. Lime juice gets bitter and loses its sourness on too high of a heat, so you have to turn off your heat and then add your lime juice for your final step.
Ingredients used in this recipe:
2 liters of water
4 stalks of lemongrass
1 inch chunk of galangal
10 kaffir lime leaves
10 Thai chilies
5 cloves of garlic
½ kilo shrimp
300 grams of oyster mushrooms
2 roma tomatoes
2 white onions (medium sized)
2 teaspoons of sugar
8 - 12 tablespoons of fish sauce (depending on your taste)
8 - 12 tablespoons of lime juice (10 - 15 limes)
Handful of cilantro
Creamy tom yum version
3 tablespoons canned Thai roasted chili sauce (nam prik pao น้ำพริกเผา)
10 tablespoons evaporated milk
Taste test, you may need to add more lime juice or fish sauce as the milk and roasted chili sauce throws off the sourness and saltiness.

See you on the next food video!
You are very good foreigner cooker.(Transformer to Thai)
I have some advice for you to cook a great tom yum. Just some tactics to make its more recipe
- At first, you have to add just some water, maybe 2 cups, DO NOT add water too much like you did because it made the soup not intense.
- When you add tom yum herbs in boiled water you have to wait till the herbs are soft, like shallot, garlic, chilies tomatoes, tamarind paste, etc. These herbs can make your soup is sweet, sour and unique.
- You should add shrimps at the last, texture of shrimps still fresh, firm and sweets.
Love your spicy eating :)
Thumbs UP if you agree with Mark Wiens that Tom Yum is one of the best soups in the entire world! Love this video Mark-those prawns look epic!
He should use coconut milk tho
Come on Cuh If add coconut milk in there, we call Tom Kha.
Oy! Tastemade is here!
Tastemade Pho i say is the best

OMG Mark, made this soup this evening and it was sooooo good, my husband thought I should sell it!

Tom Yum Soup is favourite Thai dish and it's the national dish of Thailand.
Two thumbs up! This is A REALLY authentic tom yum recipe - except I would use the thick coconut milk at the end instead of evaporated milk. Still, it's a really authentic recipe. Thanks Mark!
This was the first dish I cooked from your previous videos last year Mark. All my friends loved it. 👍👍
Blossom Gonzales Cool to hear that, yah this one is almost the same, just an updated version.
Gave it a like! And already subscribed!
Mark. I've tried the recipe and it turned out really tasty! I followed some of the tips given in the comments too. Thank you all!
Both version looks delicious. I've never tried the creamy version before so I'm going to try that recipe. Thanks!
bugs294 Thank you, hope you enjoy it.
Awesome to show us how to make the soup!
Thanks Mark! I havent tasted anything like this in any Thai Restaurant here in Saskatchewan.👍👍👍👍
i'm gonna make this recipe tomorrow. thank you
Mark, u should have your own show on tv!
You make great videos and your recipe videos are no exception. I've had to watch this video a few times as it's so good. Makes me want to try to make this at home. I went to a new Thai restaurant yesterday and ordered their version of Tom Yum soup. Their website goes into great detail explaining how original their thai food is. Well I was very disappointed. I don't understand why chefs have to change a recipe that is already so close to perfection.
Without this video I couldnt make tom yum in Korea thank u so much
yummy! I think this one is more special than the one I used to have in the hotel's or restaurants in Thailand. It has more richer ingredients. Thank you very much Mark. I will try to cook same as you
Wow Mark can cook! great demo thanks boy friend.
Thank you Mark for teaching it
MMMM...excellent! Love the pace of your video Mark.
I've had different types of Tom Yum soups. But never with tomato or milk. I'll give it a try.
This video was very helpful. Thank you😊
Nice video. It's amazing how Tom Yum Goong is such a national soup that foreigners love. Always curious about what the ingredients were (but too lazy to research it), like that red chili paste speckles floating on my soup.
why is it amazing other humans like nice food?
Beautiful thank you so much... ive been trying to figure out for months how to make the creamy tom yum...
Hi Mark, I've never been much of a cook but you've inspired me to try out new dishes!! I've made the Tom Yum soup with Your recipe and it was just great!! The rice dish is next on my list.Thank you soo much for all the delicious recipes!!

I prefer this style of video to the one you are talking while cooking.
Toma Ito Ok cool, thanks for the feedback.
