Tom Yum is hot and sour soup from Thai Cuisine. Thai Food is quite spicy and that's why perfect for any Indian Palate. Tom yum soup is hot and sour which is a perfect combination for cold winter nights . Nothing beats a steaming hot bowl of soup in winter. This is the second soup recipe that I am sharing with you and more will come throughout winter :).
