Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts attached to bone (or chicken thighs with bone)
  • 2 onions
  • ½ garlic bulb (4-6 garlic cloves)
  • 2 chopped-up leeks
  • 2-3 knobs of ginger root ( or 4-5 tsp ginger paste)
  • 1 chilli
  • 2-3 liters warm water
  • salt and pepper to taste ( I prefer to use 2-3 tsp of salt and pepper)
  • 1 tbsp cayenne pepper (optional)

Toppings

  • shredded chicken from broth
  • rice noodles/ egg noodles/ spaghetti
  • 2-3 tsp soy sauce
  • handful of beansprouts (optional)
  • 4 chopped-up spring onions (optional)
  • 1 thinly sliced onion (optional)
  • 1 sliced chilli (optional)

Instructions

  • To create the chicken broth, throw in the chicken, onions, garlic bulb, chopped leeks, ginger, chilli, salt and pepper and cayenne. Pour in the 2-3 litres of water or until the chicken and veg is covered.
    Next, place the pot of chicken and veg over medium-high heat and allow to cook for at least 2 hours.
  • While the broth cooks, prepare the noodles and vegetables.
  • Once the broth is done cooking, strain the broth into a heatproof jar. Remove the chicken and using two forks shred the chicken into thin strips.

To Serve

  • In a bowl, place a serving of noodles, then pour over the broth. Top with shredded chicken, beansprouts, red onion, spring onion, sliced chilli and a few drops of soy sauce
