Cozy and flavorful broth, easy to make for a comforting day.
Ingredients:
  • 2 shallots
  • 3 sticks of lemongrass
  • 5 cm ginger
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1-2 fresh red chillies
  • ½ a bunch of fresh coriander (15g)
  • 1 bunch of spring onions
  • 2 free-range chicken breasts
  • groundnut oil
  • 1.75 litres light organic chicken or vegetable stock
  • fish sauce
  • 3 limes
  • 1 large handful of beansprouts (ready to eat)
Instructions:
  • Peel and finely dice the shallots. Finely chop the lemongrass after removing the outer leaves. Peel and grate the ginger and garlic. Slice the chili finely. Pick the coriander leaves, shred the spring onions, and set aside. Cut the chicken into finger-width strips. In a pot, sweat the shallots in oil until soft. Then add lemongrass, ginger, and garlic, and fry for 1 minute. Pour in the stock with most of the chili. Add the chicken and simmer for about 8 minutes until cooked through. Add fish sauce and lime juice. Adjust seasoning with more fish sauce, lime juice, or chili as desired. Just before serving, add coriander, beansprouts, and spring onions, then divide into bowls.
