Preparation

Step 1

Cover the soup chicken in the pot with sufficient water. Add the star anise, cinnamon stick, cloves, black cardamom pods, 2.5 cm pieces of ginger, coriander stems, halved onion, and a little salt. Close the lid and bring to the boil. Once it reaches cooking level 2, reduce the heat. Simmer the stock for around 30 minutes until the chicken is tender and it has a strong flavor. Release the steam, open the lid and ideally let the chicken cool down in the stock. Then remove the chicken from the stock, detach from the bone and pull into bite-sized pieces.
