Cara-cara (Instructions)

  1. Rebus air kelapa muda bersama serai, lengkuas, dan daun limau purut sehingga mendidih.
    (Boil the young coconut water with lemongrass, galangal, and kaffir lime leaves until boiling.)
  2. Masukkan pes tomyam dan Thai Chili Paste. Kacau sehingga sebati dan kuah bertukar warna kemerahan.
    (Add the tom yum paste and Thai Chili Paste. Stir until well combined and the broth turns a rich reddish color.)
  3. Masukkan udang, sotong, dan isi kelapa muda. Biarkan seafood masak seketika.
    (Add the prawns, squid, and young coconut flesh. Let the seafood cook briefly.)
  4. Tuangkan santan pekat. Kacau perlahan-lahan supaya santan sebati dengan kuah.
    (Pour in the thick coconut milk. Stir gently so the coconut milk blends well with the broth.)

Tip Tambahan (Extra Tips)

  • Fungsi Thai Chili Paste: Ia memberikan tekstur kuah yang lebih pekat dan berminyak (oil-based) yang sangat sinonim dengan tomyam asli Thailand.
    (Thai Chili Paste Function: It gives the broth a thicker, oil-based texture that is synonymous with authentic Thailand tom yum.)
  • Keseimbangan Rasa: Tomyam Hatyai mesti ada rasa Masam, Pedas, dan Lemak. Jangan kedekut sos ikan dan limau nipis!
    (Flavor Balance: Hatyai Tom Yum must be Sour, Spicy, and Creamy. Don’t be stingy with the fish sauce and lime juice!)
  • Elak Kuah Pahit: Masukkan perahan limau nipis selepas api ditutup supaya kuah tidak terasa pahit.
    (Avoid Bitterness: Add lime juice after turning off the heat to prevent the broth from turning bitter.)
