black chicken soup

woo.. went marketing with my mum in the morning. i wanted to learn to cook chicken soup. and so we walked and walked.

wash the chicken. put some white chicken bones also.
$5 worth of herbs - around 5 big bowls of water.
put the herbs in when the water boils.
put the chicken in 15 minutes later. before putting the chicken in, to pour hot water over the chicken (this applies to spare ribs too when cooking soup)
to let it cook for 1 hour.
15 minutes before the 1 hr timing is up, to put few teaspoons of salt and some pepper.
done!

nice nice.. i shall learn to cook soups in future.. maybe different kinds of herbal soups.. ho ho..
