Curry Soup with Chicken

Easy and quick everyday dish. A dish like this works well as a sort of fridge-cleaning dish, as it can be varied in countless versions, it is primarily about using what you have at home.

Ingredients

  • 28 gram Oil Or 20 grams of butter
  • 6 gram Curry
  • 1.1 gram Cumin
  • 16 gram Wheat Flour
  • 700 gram Chicken Stock
  • 1 gram Cayenne Pepper
  • 0.9 gram Ground ginger
  • 0.25 pcs. Leek
  • 1 pcs. Red bell pepper
  • 200 gram Chicken Meat Cooked
  • Spices Salt, pepper, lemon juice, and gastrique (vinegar and sugar)

Instructions

  • Start by heating a thick-bottomed pot and add the oil/butter.
  • When it comes to curry dishes, I think they taste better when the curry is "burnt off" beforehand.
  • Therefore, I add curry and cumin to the pot in the hot oil and let it roast well. It always smells lovely.
  • After a few minutes, add the flour, just like in a roux-based sauce.
  • Whisk the flour together with the curry oil until you have a roux.
  • Add 1-2 dl of chicken stock at a time and make sure to whisk thoroughly so there are no lumps.
  • Turn down the heat under constant stirring and add the rest of the stock and cayenne pepper and ginger.
  • Let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the outer layer of the leek and cut the inside and top of the bell pepper.
  • Cut the bell pepper into slices and then into smaller pieces.
  • I prefer my leek finely sliced, so that's what I always do.
  • Add the leek and bell pepper to the soup and let them simmer for a few minutes.
  • Add the chicken and let it simmer for a few minutes.
  • Season with salt, pepper, lemon juice, vinegar, and sugar.
