Ingredients

1 cup Thai rice
2 cups Water
1 cup Mushrooms
1 cup Bamboo shoots
1 cup Coconut milk
1/4 cup Thai basil
2 inches Galangal
2 stalks Lemongrass
2 tbsp Vegetable oil

Method

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat, then add galangal and lemongrass and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add mushrooms and bamboo shoots and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften, about 3 minutes.
Add rice and water to the pot, and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has been absorbed, about 15-20 minutes.
Stir in coconut milk and cook, stirring constantly, until heated through, about 2 minutes.
Season with salt to taste, then stir in Thai basil and cook until wilted, about 1 minute.
Serve Khao Tom Mud hot, garnished with additional Thai basil if desired.
To enhance the flavor, use a mixture of mushroom varieties, such as shiitake and button mushrooms.
For a creamier soup, add more coconut milk or use full-fat coconut milk.
To make the dish more substantial, serve with a side of steamed vegetables or tofu.
