Chicken and vege soup

Put a tablespoon of oil in the bottom of a large pot and turn the element to high. Slice the onions and the garlic and place in pot to soften.

Pour the boiling water into the pot and lower the chicken carcass into the water. Put the lid on the pot and bring to boil, then turn the element down to medium and let it boil away for 15 minutes.

While the chicken is softening, you can cut up your vegetables.

At the end of he 15 minutes, get a collinder over a large bowl and pour the water/chicken mix through the strainer. Pour the stock water in the bowl back into the large pot and put back on the stove top. Add your veges and the box of liquid stock and the oxo cube. This enhances the flavor of your chicken and onion water.

Go back to the chicken carcass and pull off any chicken meat (no bones!) To put back in your soup.

Let the broth boil for 10 minutes, then add the chicken and bring down to a low heat for 15 minutes.

Serve in bowls with fresh parsley or bread and butter.
