How to make it
- Prepare the chicken. Marinate the chicken pieces with grated ginger, salt, pepper, dash of sesame oil, soy sauce and oyster sauce for at least an hour.
- Soak dried shitake mushrooms in water till softened. Wash and slice thinly. Marinate the mushrooms with pepper, pinch of sugar, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil and white wine for at least an hour.
- Place marinated chicken, mushrooms, garlic in a deep pot. Add about 1litre water (actually, I usually just add water until 3/4 of the pot).
- Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer for at least 1 hour. (I usually stick it into the microwave and place it on timer..1 to 11/2 hr, checking occasionally to make sure it does not boil dry....add more water if desired)
- Season the soup to taste with salt, pepper and soy sauce.
- When ready, spoon macaroni into bowls and pour the soup over the macaroni.. Garnish with cut chilli, sprig of coriander leaves and chopped spring onions.
- Note: you can add leafy vegetables like mustard veg (Kai Lan) or even cabbage into the soup towards the last 1/4 hr to make it a complete meal in itself.
