Pitak Srichan's tom yum kung narm khon (spicy prawn soup with fresh milk, above)
Keeping the traditional flavours of tom yum intact, chef Pitak offers a variation using milk instead of coconut cream. It might sound strange, but the new ingredient adds creaminess and texture.
500g medium-sized uncooked prawns, peeled and de-veined
100 straw mushrooms, washed
Half a handful of fresh bird's- eye chillies
4 sticks lemongrass
1 tbsp galangal
