This is a superb soup. I did strain out the big pieces of ginger, lemongrass and chili, and added the cherry tomatoes at the end.
I have a question: I had to make 12 servings, and it took a long time to reduce and caramelize the coconut milk. If you started with a smaller amount of coconut cream, wouldn’t that speed things up? Would it otherwise affect the balance or flavor?

This was fantastic and it was generous about accepting adaptations. I swapped soy sauce for fish sauce and left off the tomatoes and it was still fantastic.

I seriously love this soup. It's amazing flavorful with minimal effort. I make it regularly, with veggies in season. I love the cherry tomatoes, but out of season eggplant is great too. I also always add a bunch (or 2 or 3) of baby bok choy at the end.

This is fantastic, happy to have added this to my standard recipes! I did chop up my jalapeno, reduced the fish sauce to 2 teaspoons, and the lime juice to 1 tablespoon. It also makes great leftovers for lunch the next day- my coworkers were quite impressed haha.

This looks delicious! Can't wait to make it! Are there also tomatoes in the photo?

Yes, I added tomatoes to the recipe (but thanks for the catch)! You could actually leave them out, though, if you didn't feel like tossing them in.
