Simple vegan Thai soup, a recipe I love above all else. It’s easy, quick, full of flavors and just makes you happy. Served in a large soup bowl with Chop Sticks one invites you to slurp and enjoy. Asian noodles must not be missing and here the selection is now very large. Starting with udon noodles, sweet potatoand buckwheat variants. Hot soups have already helped me through the winter, or what else can warm you up from the inside when it’s minus 20 degrees? When I think of the soup, I immediately get an appetite for it. Thai cuisine has done it to me, when I think of the delicious Spring Rolls or fine, grilled skewers of oyster mushrooms. Summer may come slowly but surely, or what do you say?
Vegan Thai soup, quick and easy
Let’s get started together. For the broth we heat a little oil, add onions, ginger and garlic. Once that is stewed until translucent, we add carrots, peppers and mushrooms. I love all the vegetables in a big pot of Thai soup. You can let your imagination run wild when choosing vegetables. I added mushrooms in this case, but any other mushroom variety of your choice will work:
- Oyster mushrooms
- Herb mushrooms
- Shitake mushrooms
- Enoki mushrooms
- Pom Pom Blanc
I would order from a specialty retailer from time to time and look forward like a little kid to cool, new varieties of mushrooms. However, when I go shopping at the local supermarket or organic farm, there are usually “only” mushrooms in the display. I hope that in the future we will get more and more exotic mushroom varieties into the standard assortment. Mushrooms are an incredibly high-quality, high-protein substitute for meat, and they’re also much more climate-friendly to grow.
Continue with the green Thai paste. Here I have an absolute favorite, which I’ve linked below in the ingredients. Stir until everything is well combined and cook down for a few minutes until the vegetables have softened a touch. Deglaze with vegetable broth and coconut milk, bring to a boil and simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes.
Vegan Thai soup recipe
In the meantime, I prepare the pasta, which I prefer to cook separately. I chose udon noodles for this soup, but any of the other variations will work. In the meantime, there are very many different products made from wheat, spelt or even gluten-free from buckwheat or alternatives. Just choose a product that appeals to you the most. I’ve linked you my current favorite udon noodles below.
In the grill pan next to it, I let the tofu sizzle. To do this, I prefer to press it the day before in my tofu press, cut it into thin slices and fry it in a well-oiled grill pan. Seasoning? Here I choose a simple and delicious way to make tofu palatable. I just deglaze it with tamari, because as you know, tamari always goes, perfect!
What else is suitable to refine the soup?
- Bock Choy, which I add about halfway through the cooking time
- Chili peppers to taste, depending on how spicy you want the soup to be
- Bamboo shoots from the jar
- Lemongrass, if you can get some
- Dulse, or other seaweed of choice
- Fresh herbs like cilantro of your choice
- Sesame seeds
That says it all for our Thai soup today. If you’d rather try a different soup today, I recommend my Peanut Butter Curry Soup or Mung Dal Soup.
The simple Thai soup is:
- Warming
- Slightly spicy
- aromatic
- creamy
- asian
