Chicken Soup

, Jochen

We made a chicken soup a few days ago. It's based roughly on this recipe.

The ist of ingredients

  • 1 chicken
  • 1 onion
  • 500g carrots
  • 1 garlic bulb
  • 20 peppercorns
  • 1 bayleaf
  • some salt
  • 80g rice
  • 1 tablespoon of tomato paste
  • 200g white cabbage
  • some grated parmesan

Instructions

Put the chicken in a pot.

Cut the onion in half, peel the carrots and cut of the top of the garlic bulb.

Put the vegetables, the bayleaf, peppercorns and some salt in the pot together with the chicken and add cold water until the chicken is covered. Let this simmer for at least 1.5h, probably a bit longer.

Drain the chicken stock from the pot and keep it somewhere. Cut the carrots in bite-sized pieces, remove the chicken's skin and peel the meat of the bones. Throw away the bones. Cook the rice. Meanwhile combine the carrots, chicken and stock and get the heat up again. While the soup is simmering again, cut the white cabbage into thin slices. Add the cabbage and grate the cheese.

After a few minutes after adding the cabbage the soup should be ready. Season with salt and pepper.

Serve with some grated cheese added on top.
