Chicken Potato Soup

By Sho @ Hungry for Thai on Jan 22nd 2025 Sho

This clear soup is incredibly delicious, with a comforting warmth that's perfect for sipping throughout the day. The soup is full of rich flavors, with the sweetness from the onions and a slight tartness from the tomatoes, making it stand out from regular bland soups. The potatoes in the soup also make it filling enough to replace rice.
