    Really tasty and quick to make. I added in 2 tsp of Sharwood's Thai Sweet Chilli & Lemon Grass stir fry sauce in with the boiling stock and soy sauce, worked really well with the vegetables. Next time i will add shredded chicken aswell as i thought it needed more bulk to it.

    I made this with the stock left over from Ken Hom's Cantonese Steeped Chicken and it was so full of flavour it could have done without the soy sauce. I put a tiny smidgin of red curry paste to give it bite. Still had to add a glass of water! It was very good. Next time I hope I can get some of the delicious looking vegetables in the photo. I had a tiny courgette, a small carrot finely sliced and a few frozen beans. It gave me a great healthy feeling. I don't know if I should rate it as I changed so much. It probably needed more water and something crunchy (didn't have peanuts either) but I think it's a great idea and will experiment with it.

    This is a great basic recipe which can be modified to your liking. I added quite alot of soy as i like it. The better quality the stock the better the soup. Its definately worth a try.

    Wonderful easy recipe if you are pressed for time but would like something healthy. I added a chilli for a bit of a kick. Might try adding a spoon of thai curry paste as previous person suggested.
