Happy Tuesday,beloved readers =D

Here's a picture that I personally find very interesting,the quotes really has a deep meaning.

preach it baybeh!

Now, lets get back to business. This recipe was one of the recipe that I personally felt proud of =3

 Not to boast,but I really am happy of this creation of mine. I first had this soup when we had a dinner in my aunt's house. She is a good cook, but she will always stick to the same recipe and not dare herself to try new things. So, there I am, thinking on how to enhance the taste of the soup and add in more ingredients.

Chicken Soup with Carrot and Potato

This is how it looks like,but too bad I forgot to take any picture while I make this.

• Half a chicken (cut into smaller pieces)
• 5 medium size potato (cut into cubes)
• 2 carrots (cut into cubes)
• 1 big onion (chopped)
• 3 cloves of garlic (chopped)
• Black peppercorns (crushed roughly)
• 1 chicken cube
• 1.5 litre of water
• salt
• oil for sauteing

Steps :

1. First of all, saute the garlic,half of the crushed peppercorns and the onion till fragrant and golden brown in colour. Then,add in the chicken and cook until there is no more sign of rawness.
2. Add in the water and bring to boil.
3. Add in carrot first because it takes a while for the texture to get soft. Furthermore, carrot have the distinct taste and the sweetness that adds flavour into the soup, which leaves you crave for more.
4. Now, take one of the carrot cubes and try whether it is soft enough,but not too mushie. Then, add in the potato cubes and bring to boil again.
5. Try one of the potato cubes and make sure it is fully cooked. We don't want any hard residue in the potato while you bite into it. 
6. Take the chicken cube and crushed it into fine powdery texture and sprinkle it into the soup.
7. Add in the remaining of the crushed peppercorns and add in salt to taste. Readjust the seasoning because some brand, their chicken cubes already had salt in it. 
8. Serve while its hot with steam rice. Usually, I will pour it over cold rice and let it sink in the hot and tasty yet savoury dish. 

I like soupy rice and let my rice flooded with tasty liquid. So, I hope you enjoy this recipe and don't forget to share around and you will thank me later,hihihihi.. =)

Happy Cooking and Good Luck =)
