Veganised Sum Tum: where the flavours are sweet, salty and sour
The recipe was kind of thrown together by a mix of people with Thai heritage, but I was given this recipe as a recommended base to go off! Edit: Another co-host linked me to this recipe too!

My favourite - veganised Tom Yum soup (the flavours in this one was so authentic!)

Here's another link to a recipe that was recommended to me by one of the co-hosts of the event~!

INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 lemongrass root, smashed with knife side 
  • 1 galangal root, chopped 
  • 4 kaffir lime leaves, ripped 
  • 0.25 - 0.5 vegetable stock cube 
  • 6 champion mushrooms, quartered
  • 1 lime, sliced in thirds 
  • 1 tsp soy sauce, to taste 
  • salt, to taste 
  • (I say essential but it's optional) 0.5 tsp chilli flakes, garnish
  • (optional) coriander
  • (optional) 1 chilli, sliced length ways to garnish 
METHOD:
  1. Combine lemongrass, galanagal and kaffir leaves into half a small pot of water. Bring to a boil and let simmer until the water turns a delicate shade of green (meaning its absorbed the flavours) 
  2. Add salt to taste, making the stock just slightly over salted before adding in sou sauce, mushrooms, vegetable stock cube and mushrooms. Let simmer over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes
  3. Once done, squeeze in lime, adjust any salt/soy sauce flavours, before garnishing with coriander, chilli and chilli flakes. Serve hot!
Vegan Larb (unfortunately I didn't manage to acquire a recipe for this one at present!)
