Thai Ground Turkey Soup is warm, hearty, and full of bold Thai-inspired flavor, with veggies and rice in every spoonful. Quick and perfect with crusty bread and a salad.
Preheat Dutch oven or large pot on medium heat and swirl oil to coat. Add onion (and if using fresh ginger) and saute for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add ground turkey and cook for 7 minutes, stirring and breaking into small pieces.
Add dried ginger (if not using fresh one), coconut milk, chicken broth, red curry paste and fish sauce. Stir and bring to a boil.
Add cabbage, potatoes, carrots, rice, salt and pepper. Stir, bring to a boil, cover and simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes or until rice is cooked. You can stir a few times and check for doneness, if you want.
Add cilantro and lime juice, adjust any seasonings to taste, if you wish. Serve soup hot.
Notes
Store: Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Reheat desired amount by simmering on low heat while covered.
Freeze: Freeze in an airtight container, leaving some room for expansion, for up to 3 months.
