Choice of pre-cooked meat, 1/4-1/2lb, cut into chunks Choice of pre-cooked meat, ¼ to ½lb, cut into chunks

1. Sauté onion and garlic in ghee or oil. See note on #2 and "Notes".
2. Add Thai chili paste and sauté a minute or 2 more. Note: you may want to run "Sauté" twice, or use manual cook and Pulse a few times. Sauté did not do much (ghee wasn't melted well); manual cook gave more control.
3. Add remaining veggies and coconut milk. (Be sure to shake or stir the can first, in case the milk separated.)
4. Cook on "Hearty Soup" mode
5. Add pre-cooked meat, fish etc. while the soup finishes cooking.
6. Serve with, or over rice (Jasmine rice is most authentic for Thai cuisine).

1. See notes on Sauté step - manual cook may work better (especially with ghee). Don't use long pulses on manual, because you want the veggies to be big chunks (including cooked onion).  1.
