Ingredients
- 1 large roasted chicken
- 2 litres/3½ pints of water
- 2 carrots
- 2 leeks
- 1 onion
- 1 bay leaf
- 6 black pepper
- 1 chicken stock
- 150g/5½oz egg or rice noodles
- 100g/3½oz bok choi
- 3-4 spring onions
- 50g/1¾oz canned sweetcorn
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- small bunch coriander
Instructions
- Remove the remaining meat from the chicken carcass and place it in the fridge.
- Heat 2 litres/3½ pints of water up to a simmer in a large, deep saucepan.
- Place the roasted chicken carcass, along with any remaining cooking juices, into the hot water and add the carrots, whole leeks, onion, bay leaf, peppercorns and stock cube.
- Bring the stock up to the boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for an hour. Skim the stock from time to time to remove any scum that forms on the top.
- After cooking the stock for an hour, place a colander over a large pan. Pick out the chicken carcass from the stock and place it into the colander. Carefully pour the rest of the stock through the colander into the pan.
- Return the strained stock to the heat, and bring back up to a simmer.
- Meanwhile, tear the reserved roast chicken into small pieces.
- Add the noodles to the chicken stock and cook for a minute before adding the chicken, bok choi, spring onion, sweetcorn and soy sauce to the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then stir through the chopped coriander.
- Divide between four bowls and serve immediately.
