Chicken Soup With Dumplings
- 1 chicken breast bone-in, skin-on
- 1 carrot peeled and chopped
- 1 leek sliced
- 1/2 pound celeriac peeled and chopped
- 2 bay leaves
- 4 cloves
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
- 1/2 cup carrot juice
- 5 1/2 tablespoons butter
- 2/3 cup flour durum
- 1 egg beaten
- 2 spring onions sliced, to garnish
- fresh flat leaf parsley to garnish
- Combine chicken, carrot, leek, celeriac, bay leaves, cloves, peppercorns and a pinch of salt in a saucepan. Add 6 cups water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 30 mins, skimming off any foam.
- In a separate saucepan, heat carrot juice and butter until melted. Reduce heat to low and gradually add durum flour, stirring, until you have a ball that leaves the bottom of the pan clean. Season. Allow to cool slightly then add egg. With wet hands, form into small dumplings.
- Remove chicken from soup then strain into a clean saucepan. Add dumplings and simmer over low heat for 8 mins.
- Meanwhile, remove chicken skin and chop meat. Add to soup and warm through. Season. Ladle into bowls and garnish with spring onions and parsley.
