Onion Chicken Soup

Mum used to cook a version of the above with pork ribs. Then, she tried it out using beef and it tasted even greater! I still like the beef version, but replace the beef with chicken when I cook this at home since CY doesn’t take beef.

Ingredients (serves two)

1. 2 chicken legs (thigh and drumstick), with skin removed
2. 1 large potato
3. 1 medium size onion
4. 1 carrot
5. 3 bowls (Chinese ricebowl) of water
6. Salt and light soya sauce to taste

Method

• Peel onion and divide into quadrants
• Peel potato and carrot
• Cut chicken, potato and carrot into bite-sized pieces.
• Boil water in pot.
• Add chicken, onion, carrot into pot when water boils.
• Heat till the water re-boils again and switch to low gas setting on stove.
• Leave to simmer for 30 minutes.
• Add potato to pot, turn fire up to high.
• Bring to boil and turn fire back to low setting.
• Simmer for 30 minutes.
• Bring to boil at high setting before turning off stove.
• Add salt and light soya sauce to taste
