Thai Lemongrass Soup

Kerry Gleason's best thing for the weekend is to make something that creates a pleasant aroma throughout the house that you can enjoy for several hearty meals. He suggests a Thai Lemongrass Soup.

4 c chicken stock
4 c water
6 tsp Tom Yum paste, from Asian market or gourmet section
diced carrots
diced onions or scallions
thick-sliced green bell pepper
1 tbs. chopped ginger root
red pepper flakes (optional)
2 tbs. salt
1/2 cup shredded chicken or diced shrimp
1 tsp chopped basil

You can add chopped lemongrass, if you've got it, but the soup will stand on its own with just the paste. The aroma is awesome, and the soup is full of vitamins.
