One pot of soup makes many many dishes.
Home made chicken noodle soup
1 whole chicken
3 carrots sliced
2 parsnips sliced (we do lengthways quarters, just a family thing)
1 onion diced
1 garlic finely chopped
water to cover
1 tbs chopped fresh parsley (optional)
salt and pepper to taste
egg noodles for serving
1 garlic finely chopped
water to cover
1 tbs chopped fresh parsley (optional)
salt and pepper to taste
egg noodles for serving
Cook onion on a low heat until translucent in a big old soup/stock pot. Pile all the other veggies in. Sit the whole chicken on top. Cover with water. Bring to boil and then lower the heat and simmer for about 50mins - 1 hr or until the chicken is falling off the bone. Adjust your seasoning of salt and pepper to taste. Remove chicken. Use a paper towel to skim any fat/froth from top of soup. You can then either shred the meat and return to the pot or use the poached chicken in other dishes.
Serve soup with freshly cooked egg vermicelli noodles.
Makes about 10-12 bowls of soup, freezes well (sans noodles), and lasts in the fridge for days.
