Chicken Soup with Vegetables

Chicken soup is one the most popular dishes in the family. My kids enjoy this soup very much and since cooking it is not a daunting task, I would not mind preparing it over and over again. Normally, chicken soup Malay style is thin, almost watery like. Potatoes and carrots are often added to boost the taste. However, I prefer to add any vegetable that I have in the fridge, as long as they can fit in. Hence, this easy, simple and delicious soup that any one can enjoy at home. Do try!

Ingredients
2 chicken breasts, cubed
4 garlic, chopped
2 inch ginger, thinly sliced
2 big onions, thinly sliced
3 dried chillies
brocolli, as desired
2 potatoes, cubed
baby corns, as desired
1 carrot, sliced
2 table spoon black pepper
1 table spoon white pepper
salt, to taste

Methods
1. In a heated pot, pour in some oil and throw in the garlic, ginger, big onions. Stir until golden brown.

2. Add in the chicken and stir for a few minutes before adding in enough water to cover the whole chicken. Cook until simmer.
