Yesterday was our very first cool day in Beaufort so I rearranged my recipe plan a bit to get this warming soup in before the temps go back up again. I couldnt believe how few ingredients this recipe had for how complex the flavors were in the final product. I think the key is the fish sauce, which I beg you not to judge based on how it smells in the bottle. It has a much subtler, savory taste. One tip about this recipe dont let it simmer too long on the stove or the rice will get a bit gummy. Lloyd got home from work really late last night, so his soup was more like porridge. But still delicious!
