Brothy Chicken & Sweet Corn Soup

"I love soup - and I came across this recipe on the ninemsn website when exploring recipes under the food section. I am particularly fond of Chicken & Sweet Corn Soup but have never found a recipe that I could say - yes...more please!! This one did it for me! This recipe makes for 4 small servings - but I always tend to add more stock and water etc to make it up to 6 small servings."

  1. This is fantastic, I have made this countless times and it never fails. My other half loves it. I also add a star anise when boiling the stock and a little more ginger. Tastes just like what you are served in a Chinese restaurant. This is the best recipe I have found for this soup
     
  2. This is great, sometimes i substitute it with crab meat as well to make it crab and corn soup. You can also add peas and chopped ham to make the meal more substantial.
     
  3. Really great tasting and substantial soup. The cooking method and use of chicken breasts gave it a great flavour and left the chicken super tender.
     
  4. Really nice there sunshine.
     
  5. This was exactally when we needed last night with a houseful of sickies! Easy to make, warm, filling and really tasty. Another good recipe I was able to make with stables I had on hand.

  1. Lovely! My husband asked me yesterday for a nice corn soup for tonight's dinner. I'd had my eye on this one for awhile, and I'm glad I tried it! Very easy to make, and absolutely delicious. I made it pretty much as directed, except for substituting scallions for spring onions. I'll definitely make it again!

I live in Perth, Western Australia. I am an Office Manager in a Mining Exploration Company. I love summer and going to the beach. I also like rugging up in warm clothing during winter. I love watching cable tv with my hubby on quiet nights at home. I love cooking with a glass of red wine but equally I like a beer or two! I have two cats who I adore but who live with my parents as our place is on a main road and I want them to have a long life. We have recently acquired 2 Jack Russell puppies who are so adorable. They are now part of our little family. DH and I like to get away down south of Western Australia at least 4 times a year. We are happy to stay in 5 star hotels or camp! Depends on the mood! We have recently purchased a block way down south of Western Australia in a little coastal town called Hopetoun. We are looking forward to building a house and spending a lot more time down there, with the view that we will retire down there and enjoy our fishing life. I am happy with my life and look forward to having children with my lovely husband. I don't have many dislikes but I do dislike bitchiness and arrogance. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">
