Hi all... It's been a long time since I shared a recipe... Chicken Soup!!! Yummy soup made with few ingredients. Chicken soup is one of the best way to treat cold or flu. Soup is best when served warm and is a great appetizer.
Prep time: 5 mins Cook time: 25 mins Serves: 2
Ingredients
- 150-200 gms Chicken (With bones)
- 2-3 cups Water
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- 1 Egg (Optional)
Procedure
1. Clean and wash the chicken with turmeric.
2. Add 2 1/2 cup water to the chicken and cook until the chicken comes off the bones. (I cooked in a pressure cooker, so that the chicken is cooked within 5 minutes.)
3. When the chicken is cooked, separate the chicken from the broth.
4. Discard the bones and cut the chicken pieces small.
5. Take 1/2 cup of broth separately and add cornstarch to it.
6. Add the cornstarch mixture to the remaining broth and allow it to boil.
7. When the broth starts boiling, add the chicken pieces, salt and pepper to your taste and then simmer it for 3 minutes.(You can see the broth thickening)
8. Separate egg white from its yolk. Discard the yolk.
9. Add the egg whites to the simmering broth. Mix nicely with a ladle for 40-50 seconds.
10. Switch off the stove. Your Chicken Soup is ready...!!!
- Adding egg whites in chicken soup is optional.
- To make Chicken Corn Soup, add some cooked sweet corn to the broth while adding the boneless chicken pieces.
Yummy soup...
