Kitchen Tricks
- Simmer the soup gently to avoid overcooking the chicken, keeping it juicy.
- Add a splash of cream or milk at the end for extra richness without curdling.
Step 1
Put the chicken, peppercorns, salt, and water into a pot. Bring it to a boil, then cover and let it simmer gently for about an hour. Once done, take out the chicken and shred it, and strain out the peppercorns from the broth.
Step 2
Add the boiled corn to the chicken broth and let it cook on low heat for 15 minutes with the lid on.
Step 3
Toss in the orange carrot, red carrot, chili sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, salt, and cloves. Cover again and let everything cook for another 4-5 minutes.
Step 4
Add the capsicum and cabbage, cover, and cook for 4-5 more minutes on low heat.
Step 5
Stir in the cornflour slurry slowly, making sure to keep stirring so the soup thickens evenly.
Step 6
Pour in the beaten egg while stirring gently, and let it cook for about 3-4 minutes.
Step 7
Turn off the heat and serve the soup hot, topped with some boiled eggs if you like.
