Tofu Soup with Lemon Grass

Directions

Cut tofu into ½ inch cubes.

Cut mushrooms in half.

Put 6 cups of cold water in a large pot and bring to a rapid boil.

Add the first mix of seasonings, reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 15 minutes.

Remove any solid pieces of galanga, cilantro, lemon grass or kaffir that there are.

Add the tofu and mushrooms and simmer another 3 minutes.

Mix in the second set of seasonings and heat through.

Place soup in a tureen and garnish.

Note: To make the soup less hot use milder chilies.
