Chickenandsweetcornsoup Recipes

Steps:

• Pour 10 cups water into a big stock pot and bring to a boil over high heat. While it's coming to temp, throw in the leek, carrot, and hunk of ginger. Place the coriander and peppercorns into a small square of cheesecloth. Tie with kitchen string and add to the pot.
• Skin the chicken breasts, remove any excess fat, and throw the chicken breasts into the pot. Allow the whole lot to come to a boil, and then turn it down and simmer, covered, until the chicken is cooked and tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Remove the chicken and allow to cool. Strain the stock and discard the leeks, carrots, ginger, and cheesecloth sachet.
• Return the stock to medium heat. Add the creamed corn, bouillon cubes, chopped ginger, scallions, and sesame oil. Keep the soup at a gentle simmer while you remove the chicken from the bone and shred finely using a fork. (Or you can just slice it really thinly.)
• Turn up the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix the cornstarch with the water until smooth. Add half to the soup whilst stirring. Allow to boil until it's thickened to the soup consistency of your liking. (If it doesn't thicken, add the remaining slurry.)
• Turn the heat back down to medium. In another small bowl, beat the egg whites with a little water. Stir the soup in circles as you add the egg whites in a steady stream; it should form pretty white wisps on the surface of the soup.
• Add the shredded chicken and rice vinegar. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing everything to warm through. Taste for seasoning. Serve with a splash of soy sauce and some of the reserved scallion greens.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep pan and gently cook the chicken, garlic and ginger for 3-4 minutes without colouring
• 2. Blend the cornflour with a little stock and add to the soup pan with the remaining stock and the sweetcorn. Bring to the boil, stirring continuously and simmer gently for 5-7 minutes
• eat together the egg and lemon juice and slowly trickle into the soup pan, stirring with a chopstick or fork to form egg strands. Season to taste, garnish with salad onions and toasted sesame seeds, and serve with a drizzle of soy sauce and some prawn crackers.

Steps:

• Bring the stock to the boil in a large saucepan(depending on your taste or needs you may wish to substitute some of the stock for water).
• Add chicken breast fillet to the stock, turn the heat off and cover the pain with a lid for 15 minutes.
• Remove chicken breast from the stock and leave to cool for a few minutes then shred.
• Add corn to stock and bring to the boil over a medium heat.
• Combine soy sauce and cornflour into a paste then stir into the soup to thicken slightly.
• Add shredded chicken to soup.
• Slowly pour beaten eggs into the soup in a steady stream, stirring constantly with a fork.
• Serve topped with the sliced spring onions and enjoy!
• NB: Cooking time includes the 15 minutes for "poaching" the chicken breast.

Steps:

• In a large stock pot cover chicken and onion with water. Cook slowly until tender, approximately 1 hour. Remove chicken, let cool and remove meat from bones. Cut meat into 1 inch pieces, discard skin and bones.
• Cut corn from cobs if using fresh corn.
• Add corn, cut up chicken, celery to stock pot and season with salt and pepper. Simmer soup for 10 minutes.
• In a separate bowl make rivels by mixing together flour, salt, egg, and enough milk to form small crumbs.
• Drop rivels into soup and add hard boiled eggs. Simmer for 15 minutes and serve hot.

Steps:

• Put all the stock ingredients and the chicken in a very large saucepan, then cover everything with about 3 litres cold water. Bring to the boil, then lower to a simmer and cook for 1 hr-1½ hrs, until the chicken is cooked through. Skim off any froth every 20 mins or so. Remove the chicken to a plate to cool. Strain the stock through a sieve, skimming off as much fat as you can.
• Rinse out the pan and put the stock back in, then simmer on a high heat until reduced a little - you need about 2 litres in total. Add the carrots and leeks, then simmer for 10 mins.
• Meanwhile, shred the meat from the chicken, discarding the skin and bones. Add to the pan with the sweetcorn. Add the vermicelli noodles, unless you want to freeze the soup, and simmer for about 7 mins more, until the corn and pasta is cooked. Ladle into bowls, sprinkled with the parsley. To freeze, allow the soup to cool completely before freezing (see tip), and when you're ready to eat, allow the soup to defrost before bringing it back to a gentle simmer in a pan. Add the noodles and simmer until cooked.

Steps:

• Place chicken stock and ginger in a large saucepan. Bring to the boil and reduce to a simmer. Add chicken breasts to saucepan and cook for 6 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove chicken and allow to cool slightly before shredding.
• Add creamed corn and soy sauce to chicken stock. Heat through and stir in shredded chicken, eggwhites and spring onions. Cook a further minute and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan. Add the spring onions,ginger and cook until softened. Add the corn kernels, chicken stock, rice wine and soy sauce. Bring to the boil, slowly. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes Add the shredded chicken.
• In a small bowl, blend the cornflour with 6 tbs of cold water or stock. Add to the soup with the sesame oil, stirring until thickened slightly.
• Stir in creamed corn and simmer for 2-3 minutes Add beaten egg slowly, whilst stirring the soup then take it off the heat.
• Serve hot with toast if preferred.

Steps:

• Boil water.
• Add creamed style corn and add the dissolved chicken stock and stir.
• Once it is just about to boil, add the chicken pieces and simmer for 5 minutes to cook the chicken.
• Bring back to the boil.
• Take the soup off the element and let it cool for 15 seconds.
• Slowly add the beaten egg in a thin stream whilst stirring all the time.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve in soup bowls and sprinkle with spring onions.

Steps:

• Boil a large kettle of water. Break the carcass into a big non-stick pan and add the ginger slices, onion and two-thirds of the garlic. Cook, stirring, for about 2 mins - the meat will stick to the base of the pan, but this will add to the flavour. Pour in 1.5 litres of boiling water, stir in the vinegar, then cover and simmer for 2 hrs.
• Put a large sieve over a bowl and pour through the contents of the pan. Measure the liquid in the bowl - you want around 450ml. If you have too much, return to the pan and boil with the lid off to reduce it. Transfer the onion from the sieve to a bowl with three-quarters of the sweetcorn. Blitz until smooth with a hand blender.
• Return the broth to the pan, and tip in the puréed corn, remaining sweetcorn and garlic, the grated ginger, the whites of the spring onions and the chicken. Simmer for 5 mins, then stir in the tamari. Turn off the heat, and quickly drizzle in the egg, stirring a little to create egg threads. Season with pepper, then ladle into the bowls. Top with the spring onion greens and a few drops of sesame oil, if using.

Steps:

• Heat the butter and olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.
• Fry the onion for about 10 minutes until translucent and golden, stirring occasionally.
• Add the corn and chili pepper and continue frying about 5 minutes, again stirring occasionally.
• Add the stock, season with salt and pepper and bring to the boil. Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Transfer 2/3 of the soup to a food processor and whiz to a coarse puree. Add back into the pan and stir in the lemon juice and parsley. Taste for seasoning.
• Serve with a spoonful of sour cream and more parsley, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160c.
• Place chicken, corn, capsicum and spinach in a large bowl.
• Stir in the flour and eggs and season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Heat half the oil in a large non-stick frying pan.
• Using ¼ cup of mixture for per fritter, spoon mixture, 3 fritters at a time, into hot oil. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes each side or until golden and firm to touch.
• Drain on a rack over kitchen paper and keep warm in oven whilst cooking remaining fritters.
• Add additional oil to pan as needed.
• Serve with a salad of mixed leaves, tomato and cucumber.

Steps:

• For the base, melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the flour and cook for a few mins, stirring all the time. Now, using a whisk or spatula, carefully stir in the milk, a little at a time, making sure the sauce stays smooth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for a couple of mins until it thickens - it will be very thick. Turn the heat right down and keep cooking for 5 mins, stirring often.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry all of the chicken in batches until it starts to colour lightly at the edges. Scoop out each batch of chicken and put it on a plate. Add the onion to the pan if you are using it, and cook over a low heat until soft. Add the chicken and any juices and the onion to the white sauce, fold it in and cook the mixture for a further 15 mins or until the chicken is cooked through. If you're making the base ahead of time, you can leave it to cool at this stage then freeze in an airtight container for up to a month. (Defrost fully before using in the next step.)
• Heat oil in a pan, add the celery and leek, then fry them gently until completely soft. Stir in the chicken base and stock and bring the mixture to a simmer.
• Add the sweetcorn and cook for 5 mins, then stir in the greens and cook for 1 min. Sprinkle over the chives and serve.
