Chicken Manchow Soup

This soup was in my
mind ever since I had it one of the restaurant which we went recently. That was
the first time I heard and tasted this yummy goodness. It was spicy at the same
time it has lots of flavours in it. The whole soup was finished with a crispy
noodle topping which really made it. I wanted to recreate this soup and post it
here.So I made this one night and had it with grilled chicken sandwich and baked chicken nuggets. They were delicious.

This was perfect on
a cold day and I hope you will love it too.

Ingredients:
Oil – 1 tblspn
Ginger – 1 tblspn
minced
Garlic – 3 fat
cloves minced
Spring onion – 2
chopped finely
Carrot – 1 shredded
Cabbage – 1 cup
shredded
Celery – 1 stick
shredded
Green Bell Pepper /
Capsicum – 1 shredded
Soy Sauce – to taste
Red Chilli Paste –
to taste ( I took some dry red chillies and ground it with some water)
Vinegar – to taste
Salt,Sugar, Pepper
to taste
Chicken – 3/4 kg
Turmeric Powder – 1
tsp
Corn Starch / Corn
Flour – 2 tblspn
Egg – 2
For
Garnishing:
Raw Noodles  fried
Spring Onion – green
part chopped finely
Method:
First make  the chicken stock. Take a pressure cooker add
chicken along with some turmeric powder and salt. Add lots of water and
pressure cook it for 5-6 whistle. Now let the pressure go all by itself. Open
the pressure cooker and filter the stock. Now remove the flesh from the chicken
and set aside. Throw away the bones and reserve it for your dog.
Now heat oil in a
deep pot. Add in ginger, garlic, spring onion and saute for couple of mins.
Add in the shredded
veggies and cook for 5-10 mins till the raw smell goes away.
Now add in red
chilli paste, soy sauce, vinegar, salt, sugar, pepper and mix well.
Pour the chicken
stock in this and mix well. Bring this to a boil.
Now add in the
cooked chicken and mix well.
Now mix cornflour
with some cold water and pour that into the soup. Now the soup must have
thickened.
Now beat eggs and
pour it over the soup while mixing constantly. This will make the egg form into
threads.
Switch off the flame
and ladle the soup into some bowls.
Sprinkle some fried
noodles over it with some spring onion.
Serve hot.
