Chicken Soup
I learnt this recipe from my wife, it's a traditional Chicken soup from Poland.
- 600g chicken
- 1 carrot
- Roughly 20cm leek
- Parsley root
- Celery root
- Ground pepper
- Vegetable spice
Fill a saucepan with 2.5L of water and add the chicken whilst the water is still cold. Turn on the heat to high and remove the foam when it appears - The soup will be cloudy without this step.
When the foam has disappeared add the vegetables, vegetable spice, and ground pepper. If you are not using vegetable spice add a tiny amount of salt.
Leave it on a low heat for approximately 1.5 hours.
Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove the chicken and shred it. I keep this in a bowl in the fridge to fry the next day. It’s great in butter!
