- Reduce heat to medium-low and add some coconut milk, fish sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, and sugar. Stir well to mix and lightly simmer until hot (don't boil at this time). Taste-test the soup for salt and spice, adding more fish sauce rather of salt (It's my job to add another Tablespoons of.), or even more chili as preferred. If too sour, increase the sugar. If too spicy for the taste or you'd enjoy it creamier, increase the coconut milk. If too salty, add another squeeze of lime juice.
- Serve in bowls with fresh coriander sprinkled over. For an additional hit of flavor, you may also then add Thai chili sauce, either store-bought or even the homemade version: Nam Prik Pao Chili Sauce Recipe. ENJOY!
