Just letting you know this Thai Coconut cabbage soup recipe was originally published in December 2014. I retested and improved the recipe, rephotographed, updated content. Now I am republishing it for you today! I hope you enjoy. Thank you for following Cotter Crunch Y’all!.

Tasty Thai Coconut cabbage soup! Made with simple ingredients. This Paleo Thai soup is delicious and vegan friendly. -

This week, the love of flavor packed recipes continues, in the form of soup that is! But let me explain what makes this Thai coconut soup the perfect soothing dish for body and soul as well.  Hang with me, I’ll get to it soon!

You see, when the body (or at least my body) is under a certain amount of stress, digestion needs a little more support. This is  why it’s so important to focus on getting nutrient dense foods in the system, as well as taking a chill pill. Am I right?

But what nutrient foods work for me, might not work for you. So can be tricky. The body responds differently to certain foods for EACH person depending on the environment they are in or their current health condition. Hence why I posted the “healing foods” meal plan last week.

For us Crazy Cotters, immunity boosting smoothies, Turmeric teas, and anti- inflammatory rich soups give us more bang for you buck, per se. Easy to digest, but still full of nourishment. Nourishment in the form of soothing herbs, vegetables, and spices! Adding in herbs and spices are also a great way to significantly increase the nutritional value of your meals, plus many herbs and spices serve as digestive aids.

Hence my love affair with paleo thai coconut soup! It’s full of good for your health medicinal herbs like lemongrass, anti-inflammatory rich spices (like curry), antioxidant rich peppers, and healthy fats (like coconut milk), etc. Not to mention good for your digestion vegetables, like cabbage!

Adding cabbage brings extra nourishment and texture to this Thai Coconut Milk Soup!

Yep! Instead of grains (like rice), we are using shredded cabbage.

Whoa I just said LIKE a lot. But you get my point. I LIKE what’s in this soup.

 

Easy Thai coconut soup with coconut milk and cabbage. This nourishing Thai soup is quick to make with simple ingredients. Low Carb, Paleo & Vegan friendly.

You can use red or green cabbage for this Thai soup. Both red and green cabbage are rich in minerals calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Three essential minerals that are crucial for protection of bones. As if that wasn’t enough, some studies have shown that cabbage may help improve the health of the stomach and digestive tract as a whole. You can thank the anti-inflammatory rich glucosinolates found in cabbage for that (source). Oh and fiber, cabbage has tons of fiber, obviously.

Is that enough nerdy nutrition talk for ya? Ha! But gosh darn I love it when food can play a KEY part in healing and health.

Alright, now you know why I love this soothing soup and why I am sharing it AGAIN today, 3 years later. The recipe is retested and improved. HOORAY!

Description

This nourishing Thai soup is quick to make with simple ingredients. Low Carb, Paleo, Whole30, and Vegan friendly.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon oil, divided. (Avocado oil or sesame oil work great)
  • 2 to 3 cups shredded cabbage (red or green) – see notes.
  • 1 to 2 tablespoon lime juice (divided)
  • fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp red chili paste (the more, the spicier. Adjust to preference)
  • 2 stalks fresh lemongrass, cut in 1-in. pieces or 1.5 tbsp lemongrass paste. (see notes)

  • 1-inch piece peeled fresh ginger or 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 3/4 cups regular or light coconut milk (15-ounce can)

  • Sliced lime
  • 2 Thai birds eyes red peppers, seeds in or removed, sliced for garnishing
  • Optional add ins: Cooked shrimp, chicken, tofu, sriracha, mushrooms, etc.
  • optional chopped scallions (green portion)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, sauté your shredded cabbage in oil, 1 tbsp lime juice, 1 tsp minced garlic, and dash of pepper. Cook about 2 minutes on medium to medium high. Be sure not to cook all the way. Remove cabbage from pot and set aside.

  5. Spoon into bowls. Garnish with fresh lime slices, spicy pepper slices (i.e jalapeños or additional Thai red peppers), drizzle of chili sauce, and pinch of pepper. Optional chopped scallions to top.

Notes

Substitutions

  • You can use Thai basil if you don’t like cilantro.
  • 2 stalk fresh lemongrass, cut in 1-in. pieces will equal around 1- 2 tbsp lemon grass paste.
  • Protein is optional, but you can add in a cooked protein of choice (i.e shrimp, tofu, chicken, etc.) at step 6. When you mix in and simmer the coconut milk and cabbage.

    Really liked this! I added shrimp and I upped this heat with extra ginger root and chili sauce. Would probably be excellent on rice or cauli- rice next time. Thanks for the recipe.

    Our family loves Thai food and I was really looking forward to having this soup, but it was a big disappointment. Really bland. Family rejected. Giving it a 2 because I ate the leftover serving rather than throwing it out, which was my first thought. I was sorry to have wasted my money buying the lemongrass for this.

      I think it freeze quite well. Just have to mix the coconut milk up again once thawed. Easy! Doubling works as well but I would adjust the lemon grass and other spices to your liking once double. Just taste it and continue to add bit by bit. Does that make sense?

    I’m a souper star. Thought you’d appreciate that.

    I adore the flavors in here and also happen to have a cabbage or two in my fridge right now. I could pretty much live off soup this time of year. True story: I’m actually reheating some of Saturday night’s Minestrone Soup for dinner tonight, along with a butternut squash drop biscuit. Mmm, can we somehow make those good for gut health too?!

    I love all these flavors!

    When I’m feeling bad (GI bad, that is) I make this soup that I learned about when things were REALLY bad for me. I steam equal parts spinach, green beans, zucchini, and parsley and then puree with the steaming water. You only need a pinch of salt and it is truly delicious!

      you can sub out the coconut milk for vegetable broth or even a little cream! I would use 1/2 cup cream and then the rest broth to make up for the coconut. NO prob!

    I really need to start eating more soups. I’ve been drinking up smoothies like a madwoman lately because of how easy they are on my stomach, but sometimes they make me a little chilly 😛 Soup would be the perfect solution… and coconut milk is basically liquid gold <3

    This reminds me of Tom Kha Gai, which I usually can’t order in restaurants because I don’t know exactly what they are using, but which I think is just a delicious soup. And as someone with a digestive illness, I can tell you–stress plays a HUGE role in gut health, and gut health plays a HUGE role in stress!
