Tom kha gai, literally translates to boiled galangal chicken. It is a spicy hot soup in Thai Cuisine made with coconut milk, lemon grass and chicken. The fried chillies add a smoky flavor as well as texture, color and heat, but not so much that it overwhelms the soup. The key is to get a taste balance between the spices.
