There's nothing more comforting than a...
...piping hot bowl of soup during the winter.
Which is why I am going to make of Hot and Sour Soup...
...with loads of chicken today for you on 'Get Curried'.
I'm Tarika and I hope you'll love this recipe.
The Wok is nice and hot,
So I'm going to add a tbsp of flavourless oil.
And immediately add some finely chopped Garlic,
This is about 1 and 1/2 tsp.
And I've added 1 tsp of finely chopped Ginger.
Just swirl that around.
Just as soon as this becomes fragrant, add the vegetables.
I'm going to start with about 1/3 of a cup of finely chopped Carrot.
And a similar quantity of the French Beans.
We're just looking to stir fry these.
Now to these veggies,
I'm going to add some finely chopped Button Mushrooms.
These are just about 3 large button mushrooms,
That I've just minced up really finely.
The reason why I've added the mushrooms later...
...is because they have a much faster cooking time.
So, that's looking good.
Now it's time to add the seasonings.
This is a hot and sour soup,
So I'm going to add 2 tsp of Black Pepper.
Some Chili Powder.
This is a chicken hot and sour soup,
So now it's time to add the chicken.
I've got a 100 grams of chicken, boneless chicken.
That I've just poached in some water,
With just a little bit of salt, pepper.
And just chopped it up really finely, just shredded it really finely.
Because again in the soup we want...
...everything to just melt into your mouth.
Lovely.
Now the chicken is taking on the flavour.
Now it's time to add the chicken stock,
You can use a vegetable stock, you can use plain water,
Any of those things is absolutely fine.
This is very close for being done,
But now we have to add more elements of hot and sour.
So there's some Dark Soy Sauce.
Now it's time to add the sour bit of our hot and sour soup,
And that soreness comes from Plain White Vinegar.
Now I would urge you to actually just use this plain white vinegar,
And not...please don't ask about Apple Cider Vinegar,
Because that really doesn't go in this recipe.
Stir that in.
One final step is to add the egg drop part to the soup.
For that, I've just got 1 egg here which I'm just whisking bit by bit.
I know some people add this like in one go,
Then what you end up getting is like a big streamy runny egg.
But add this bit by bit to get the egg drop.
Now in this recipe, because I've used dark soy sauce,
It's added enough salt into the recipe,
So I'm not adding any table salt to it.
In fact I'm going to add just about in less than a tbsp more,
Instead of salt.
And another tbsp of Vinegar.
Stir that in.
And that's it.
And I really hope that you will try this recipe too,
It's perfect for the winter.
