Maesri Tom Kha Soup (Tom Yum) 400ml

Maesri Tom Kha coconut soup with Thai inspired flavour

Maesri Tom Kha Soup brings together coconut milk, lemongrass, galangal and lime for a gently hot, sour and creamy tasting soup. The coconut milk makes the broth feel smooth, while natural herbs, fresh red chillies and kaffir lime leaves give it a lively, aromatic character. Oyster mushroom and straw mushroom add savoury notes to the mix. Made in Malaysia, this 400ml soup is described as suitable for vegetarians, giving you a useful starting point for a warming lunch or a relaxed evening meal.

Rather than building a soup from separate ingredients, you can keep this can in the cupboard and have a fragrant coconut soup base ready when you want something comforting. Its balance of creamy coconut, citrus brightness and gentle heat makes it a distinctive choice for anyone who enjoys the layered flavours associated with Thai cooking.

The flavour is rounded rather than simply rich. Lemongrass and lime bring freshness, galangal gives the broth its recognisable aromatic depth, and the chillies add warmth. The mushroom pieces contribute texture, so each spoonful has more going on than a plain coconut broth. Serve it in a bowl while hot and let the fragrant steam set the mood for a cosy meal at home.

How to prepare Maesri Tom Kha soup

For the preparation suggested on the packaging, pour the can into a pot and stir as it heats until boiling. Add 100g of sliced chicken and 50g of mushroom, then continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through. The suggested quantity serves two to three. The product is described as suitable for vegetarians, so you can also enjoy the soup as a vegetarian option without adding chicken. The supplied instructions list chicken and extra mushroom as optional additions, which lets you tailor the bowl to your meal.

For a simple serving, ladle the hot soup into bowls and enjoy it as a starter or a light meal. If you are preparing a fuller table, serve it alongside rice and other dishes, or make it one course in a Thai inspired dinner. Keep any additions modest at first, then taste the broth as you go so its coconut, citrus and herbal character remains at the centre. You can also serve it in smaller portions as a warming first course before a main dish.

This is a convenient option for those days when you want a flavoursome soup without measuring out a long list of aromatics. Add the contents to a saucepan, warm it carefully, and follow the pack directions for any meat you choose to add. It is also easy to browse alongside other choices in our soups collection and canned goods range when planning a stocked pantry. Store unopened in a cool, dry place. Once opened, consume immediately.
