Elusive Thai soup?

[KitchenChiroptera]

My favorite Thai/Lao restaurant serves a soup that the menu calls 'Tom Ginger' but I've found no such thing on the internet... It's a spicy chicken soup with a clear broth that tastes of ginger and lime. I want to make my own, can anyone help?

I've never had that, but I guess I will try to find it. Based on what you said, I did a search for 'Tom khing' (I think khing is the Thai equivalent for ginger'). Here is a link to a recipe I found:

Try this omitting the roasted chilli paste and substituting chicken for shrimp...

Forgot to add...

I'd eliminate the tamarind water and adjust limes to desired sourness.

Close, but with tomatoes and mushrooms and such...

Look up Tom Yum Gai. That's my guess.

That sounds about right, do you know a good recipe?
