Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 1/2 cans coconut milk
3 teaspoons chopped scallions
2 teaspoons lemon grass
cilantro
tofu -- cubed into smallish
chicken -- also cubed to bite
mushrooms
1 carrot, grated
8 of limes
serrano chillies
1 teaspoon galanga powder

Heat the coconut milk in a pot. Add everything else. As the lemon grass is
inedible, put it in a tea ball and immerse the ball in the soup so you can
retrieve it later. Cook until the chicken is done and the soup is hot (30
minutes). Taste to see if it needs more limes (it always does) or more hot
peppers (it's better to start mild and build up to the desired level of
spiciness).
