Chinese-Style Chicken And Sweetcorn Sunshine Soup
- 4 cups Chicken Stock
- 1 whole Chicken Breast, Thinly Sliced
- 1 can Sweetcorn (small)
- 1 whole Egg
- 1 Tablespoon Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch (mixed With A Little Water)
- Salt And Papper
- 1) Heat both oils in a saucepan and lightly cook the sliced chicken until sealed.
- 2) Add the chicken stock and allow to simmer for 15 minutes.
- 3) Drain the sweetcorn and add to the soup; turn the heat right down.
- 4) Using a fork (yes, a fork), slowly drizzle the egg into the soup in so it forms thread-like 'ribbons.' If you tip the egg in too fast, it will just form a solid mass.
- 5) Season with salt and pepper to taste, before adding the cornflour/cornstarch a little at a time, stirring constantly until the soup is at the desired thickness. (Remember that the soup will continue to thicken as it re-reaches boiling temperature, so don't add too much cornflour. If it does become too thick, stir in a little more water or chicken stock.)
