Rice Soup with Minced Pork

This delicious Thai-style rice soup has a light but flavorful broth infused with the aroma of lemongrass, ginger, and other herbs. We used chopped pork, but it can also be made with chicken or fish. In Thailand Tom Khao Moo Sap is often eaten for breakfast, but it can be enjoyed anytime you need a break from rich and spicy foods.
