Chicken 'Fun' soup: 1 whole free range chicken some onions chopped into chunks some tomatoes chopped up aswel this one is very simple: just put the whole chicken to boil n boil, add tomato and onions and celery if u wish. skim off the oil etc.. When the chicken is fully cooked, get it out and add salt, msg and fish sauce until the taste is right for u... You can then shred the chicken and make some noodles ( aka fun) and eat it with the soup.. or this one: Lor See Fun Soup' With the chicken powder base, u can also add prawns, fish balls and onions/tomatos...celery if you wish and just let it boil.. U can even make some pasta and eat it with the soup, this is called ' Lor See Fun' =) Add pepper for extra flavour.

My mum has it all in her head... and it's soooooo frustrating asking her!! She's like "just add this and this and this.... and then boil....." -unsure -_- "Say whaaaatt?" coz she doesn't say how many grams, how many cups of water... how long to cook... *aiya...* then she gets up me "you should have learnt with me while you were in brisbane and not going out all the time with your friends and stay home like a good girl... " -nono
I love soup! My parents used to own a restaurant, so here is a quick easy soup and popular with the customers: Chicken Sweet Corn Soup! Ingredients: Serving for about 4 people: a can of Creamed corn about 400 - 500 grm a good chicken stock about 4 cups (ask butcher for bag of chicken bones, puit it into a big pot and boil for half a day, discard bones strain clear chicken stock or if too hard just buy premade stuff, but find one that you like otherwise maybe too salty or too much msg ) 1 breast fillet of chicken finely chopped or minced ground ginger, finely chopped garlic, shallots/spring onions 1 tsp oil 2 eggs fried thinly sliced garlic (topping soup garnish can make it slice a garlic clove thinly and then fry in a shallow pan till brown and crispy or buy packet stuff) 1. Heat a large pan over high heat, add oil and ground ginger, garlic, shallots/spring onions stir for about 1 - 2 minutes. 2. Pour in the chicken stock and can of cream corn, chicken fillet mince/chopped. 3. Bring to the boil while stirring make sure the chicken is cooked,reduce to low so it is simmering. 4. put in a bit of salt and pepper to taste. 5. Stir in your egg white so you get the cool egg streaky thing going in the soup, garnish with your fried sliced garlic 6. Enjoy your soup. *Pro-Tip! : - If you ever find your soup a little too thin, you can thicken it up using some corn starch. 1. get a small bowl put in about 1/2 spoon of corn starch add a bit of the thin soup and stir. 2. Then add it back into the soup and viola...thicker soup. Have fun and let us know how you go with the soup

Thank you! It turned out really nice - just like the restaurant ones hehehe My usual style of corn soup is to put in melted butter and also sub the chicken mince with diced bacon or "gong-wan" (pork balls) that's more 'western' style though!
Just wondering where do you get the multi-colored carrots from? >.< are they called anything else? Sorry to sound so noobie! hehe -sweat
