Spiced Chicken Soup Recipe (Sup Ayam Rempah)
Ingredients:
- 500 grams chicken thighs, coated with apple cider vinegar (ACV)
- 7 cloves garlic, crushed
- 3 stalks green onions, roughly chopped
- 1 stalk celery
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 thumb-sized piece of ginger, sliced
- 1 liter water
- Salt, to taste
- Royco seasoning, to taste
- Diabetasol sweetener (optional, for a touch of sweetness)
- Fried shallots, for garnish
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Broth: Begin by bringing the water to a boil in a large pot. Once boiling, add the crushed garlic, sliced ginger, cinnamon stick, and ground black pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes to infuse the flavors.
-
Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken thighs, which have been coated with apple cider vinegar, into the simmering broth. Stir occasionally to ensure the chicken is evenly cooked. Incorporate the chopped green onions into the pot. Continue to simmer until the chicken becomes tender and the broth reduces to a thicker, more flavorful consistency.
-
Season the Soup: Season the soup with salt and Royco seasoning according to your taste preferences. If you like a touch of sweetness, add Diabetasol sweetener. Stir well and adjust the seasoning as needed.
-
Finish with Fresh Herbs: Add the finely chopped celery to the pot. Give the soup a final stir and turn off the heat.
-
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with a sprinkle of fried shallots. Serve with your favorite sambal on the side for an extra kick.
