  • 18.20 gm olive oil
  • 1 large brown onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 20.00 ml finely chopped fresh ginger
  • 20.00 ml chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1.2kg whole fresh chicken, trimmed
  • 1 celery stick, coarsely chopped
  • 2 small fresh red chillies, seeded, finely chopped
  • 1.5L-2L (6-8 cups) cold water
  • 500g sweet potato, peeled, cut into 1.5cm pieces
  • 150g (1 cup) frozen peas

Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan over gentle heat, warm the oil. Sauté the onion, garlic, ginger, and rosemary until tender, about 5 minutes.
