Introduction

Is from www.smulweb.nl Tastes very authentic and has lots of good reviews. It's delicious and healthy as you simmer the chicken for at least 1 hour and take off the skin before further preparing.
I used 1.5 tsp of sambal (chili paste) but recipe says 1 or more to taste, is personal.

Directions

- Bring 1 liter of water to the boil with onion, garlic, chicken stock cubes and chicken legs.
- Simmer for 1 -1.5 hours (until chicken legs are cooked).
- Take ingredients from the stock
- I pureed the garlic and onion and added these to stock, was delicious but original recipe doesn't say to do this.
- Let the chicken cool down, then remove meat from skin and bones and slice finely - keep in bowl until required
- Add seived tomatoes to stock and stir.
- Mix in another bowl the sugar, sweet soy sauce, vinegar, djahe and sereh.
- Stir mix into soup.
- Mix cornflour with a little cold water until it's a smooth paste.
- Add noodles (I didn't as I prefer the soup without but it is in the original recipe).
- Simmer for another 20 minutes
- Add the cooked sliced up chicken.
- Enjoy!
