Method

6 steps · 35 minutes

Smash the galangal with the side of a knife and bruise the lemongrass by bending it a few times. Leave the lime leaves whole.
Pour the stock into a wide pot, add the galangal, lemongrass and lime leaves, and bring to a simmer for 5 minutes to extract the aromatics.
Tip in the coconut milk and the sliced chicken. Simmer gently for 6 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked through.
Add the mushrooms and fish sauce. Simmer 2 more minutes.
Off the heat, stir in the lime juice and taste for salt. Fish sauce is salty, so adjust at the end.
Ladle into bowls, scatter the cilantro and sliced chiles over the top, and serve hot.
