Loosely based on a Thai recipe from a cooking class I took in Ko Lanta, Thailand made from ingredients easily sourced from my small local grocery store. I tried to do it this way to make the recipe more accessible. Not everyone has access to an Asian supermarket..

I like spicy food so this will make a very spicy soup. (we're talkin' north-eastern Thai spicy!) Adjust the amount of chiles to taste. I used turkey since it's leaner and cheaper here. Use chicken, shrimp, or any source of protein.
