| chicken soup gravy served with boiled rice |
Chicken soup gravy can be served with rice, macaroni, spaghetti, unripe boiled plantain or just enjoyed as a meal on
its own. It is a very tasty and healthy meal. It tastes better with lots of pepper and just a lil flour. Too much flour can make the soup too thick and uninteresting.
Ingredients:
- 1 whole chicken
- seasoning cubes 2
- salt
- onion
- very well washed bitteleaf, mint leaves (scent leaves) OR uziza
- ground fresh pepper
- baking flour 2 spoonfuls
- water
 |
| Boil washed chicken with salt and chopped onions |
 |
| add seasoning cubes to chicken soup |
add very well washed bitter leaf or mint leaves or uziza to chicken soup
 |
| bitterleaf and ingredients boil and then simmer. Pot was too small, had to empty contents into a bigger pot to continue cooking |
 |
| adding flour to chicken soup |
 |
| add 2 spoons of baking flour to boiling chicken stock |
 |
| chicken soup gravy boils while flour mixes well with stock |
 |
| chicken soup simmers and cooks slowly |

Billie jean
Yes there is, you can cook with hot leaf (uziza).
DeleteHmmmmmm i like, but i'll go for scent leaf instead of the bitter leaf.
ReplyDeleteNo wahala at all Chichi, you are very free to adapt any recipe to your taste.
DeleteThe bitter leaf just changed my face,can we eat with pounded yam or fufu?since it's a soup*just asking*
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about bitter leaf, you can use mint leaves (scent leaves). If the poundo or fufu is soft enough, I think you should be able to swallow.
