Concretes Communist Chicken Soup.
Right. Roast a chicken and eat it. Enjoy it.
This is for the people of the republic who need to make the chicken last.
OK.
Keep the bones and any meat left over from the roast. If you don't fancy it soon after the roast. Save all the bits in a government approved freezer until you need them.
1. Smash the bones. Break them like the fowl Capatalists they are! Once broken up. Cover in water and bring to a boil. Boil for a couple minutes ontill the Capatalist scum starts floating at the top of the water.
Then. Dump everything in a colander keeping the cleansed bones and meat. Dump them back into the pot. Add enough water to cover them again. Bring to a boil, turn down the temp and simmer for a couple hours.
When you get bored. Strain again. This time, keep the water. Keep the bones as well (you can pick the meat off them once cool enough).
2. Bring the chicken stock back to a rolling simmer. While doing this chop up some bok choy (celery will work). Thinly slice some shit-ache mushrooms. Grab some fresh corriander (if you have it, if not skip this part) then pick all the leaves off and finley chop the stems.
Chuck the stems, mushrooms and greens into the stock.
3. Because its probably taken you so long to pick the leaves off the corriander. The chicken bones should now be cool enough to pick the meat off them, do so. Chuck the meat into the stock as well (if there is not enough, half a pre-cooked chicken breast per person should be enough. Just chop it up first).
4. Now. Since we all have this in our fridge. Dump some oyster sauce into the pot. No too much, and not to little (it's all in your taste) then dump some soy sauce in as well. Stir to mix up.
5. Next! Finely slice some fresh ginger (powdered will work too). Crush and chop a couple garlic cloves and a chilli pepper. Flash fry these for a bit then dump into the soup.
6. Those leafs you picked off the corriander? Roughly chop most of them and chuck in the pot as well.
7. Bring back to the boil, and add egg noodles (not the mafia run italian wheat noodles). Cook for about two minutes. Then cover and turn off the heat.
8. Go to the pub.
9. Upon return from the pub. Reheat and serve with some of the fresh uncooked corriander leafs on top.
Sorry. I did ramble a bit. But it is acually quite simple to do. If I feel like it, I'll give the short version one day.
N.B. For the N.Americans. Corriander=Cillantro
