What you will need for a nice big pot to serve 6-8
1 small/medium chicken
6 carrots diced
3 sticks celery diced
3 parsnips diced
2 medium onions diced
6 cloves crushed garlic
2 chicken stock cubes
3 tbl spoons cooking oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Chop up chicken into 1/4 pieces, add about 3lts water and bring to the boil in a large soup pot simmer for about 45mins.
This will create a nice stock. Remove chicken from pot and allow to cool.
Once cool remove meat from carcass and cut into chunks.
Remove stock from pot and place in a jug/bowl until ready to use.
Heat oil saute onions until nice and tender add garlic, add all diced veg and fry lightly for 5 mins.
Add chicken pieces and liquid stock you set aside previously along with the 2 stock cubes.
Allow to simmer for a further 5 mins at this stage add salt and pepper to taste.
Depending on the amount of liquid in your pot you can add probably 1 cup of water, the idea is to make sure all veg and chicken are well covered.
Continue to simmer over a very low heat for 30 mins. (You can also add quick noodles to give your soup more body)
Serve with nice fresh bread and butter....
