This soup recipe is GREAT if you work with it a bit. <br /> <br />1/2 cup coconut milk is in no way sufficient -- add the whole can. <br /> <br />Lime juice is also not enough to really make the soup -- make sure each guest gets their own lime for garnish, they'll need it. <br /> <br />And add 2-3 limes worth of juice to the soup. <br /> <br />Garnish with Sriracha as well as the onions/cilantro. <br /> <br />If you can't find the Thai sausage at specialty meat markets -- here's how it is made: <br /> <br />Choose a meat: chicken tenderloin strips, "hamburger" soy crumbles, ground chicken/turkey. <br /> <br />Then add drizzle well with Sriracha, add chopped cilantro and loads of pressed garlic and some fresh ground pepper. <br /> <br />Allow to marinate overnight and then make the recipe as indicated.
