Authentic Thai Vegetable Soup
Authentic Thai Vegetable Soup
"Although this soup is considered light in terms of the thickness, the flavor is so rich that you would drink it one spoon after another, not to mentioned that it’s full of healthy veggies. With that said, it’s a fantastic meal by itself. It also goes very well with rice."
