How to make it keto
Explicitly request 'Tom Yum Nam Sai' (clear Tom Yum) with no added sugar. Confirm no evaporated milk or coconut milk (which sometimes has sugar) in the clear version.
Watch out for
Hidden sugar in some restaurant preparations or pre-made Tom Yum pastes. Avoid the creamy version (Tom Yum Nam Khon) due to potential lactose and sugar from evaporated milk.
