*** Chicken stock is nothing but water in which chicken is steamed. Earlier when I prepared a chicken dish I steamed chicken in a cooker and retained the water for preparing the soup.

*** Mixed Herbs – I bought it from the store. It has mixture of Basil, Thyme, Parsley, Chili flakes, Pepper etc., which adds flavor to simple soups, pastas, stir fries, salads, etc.,

Note:

Ø  I dint had any veg in the house otherwise would have added veg like Carrot, Beans, Spring onion and even Pasta or Macaroni.

Ø  If you want to make soup thicker, add corn flour water to the soup while boiling and stir for a while. Just a tbps of cornflour with ½ cup water, stir it with no lumps and add.
