    This is the Thai version that uses 'tom yum' paste - you'll see in the ingredients list that there's nothing too 'unusual' about what goes in it - it's hopefully stuff that you already have in your storecupboard so you can easily make it yourself - of course you can just use the bottled variety from a supermarket. http://hungryjenny.blogspot.com/2010/05/say-no-to-takeaway-make-some-hot-and.html
