  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3 1/2                cans coconut milk
   3      teaspoons     chopped scallions
   2      teaspoons     lemon grass
                        cilantro
                        tofu -- cubed into smallish
                        chicken -- also cubed  to bite
                        mushrooms
   1                    carrot, grated
   8                    of limes
                        serrano chillies
   1      teaspoon      galanga powder

Heat the coconut milk in a pot. Add everything else. As the lemon grass is
inedible, put it in a tea ball and immerse the ball in the soup so you can
retrieve it later. Cook until the chicken is done and the soup is hot (30
minutes). Taste to see if it needs more limes (it always does) or more hot
peppers (it's better to start mild and build up to the desired level of
spiciness).
