Here is my 15 minute version of the beautiful Tom Yum Soup from Thailand. I first tasted this soup nearly 20 years ago in Phuket whilst on holiday with my boyfriend (now my husband 🥰) we were at the most gorgeous restaurant on a cliff and he proposed! So as you can imagine I have very fond memories of this soup. Ok you can put your buckets away 🤣 back to the job at hand. Normally I like to make my own pastes but on this occasion I used good quality shop bought. You can use all sorts of fish or shellfish. Mussels, monkfish, hake, halibut or cod would all work really well. For a heartier version add rice noodles.
