- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tbsp oil of your choice
- 450 g diced soup vegetables (e.g. carrot, sweet potato, turnip, zucchini, celery)
- 1/4 tsp white pepper (optional)
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (optional)
- 1 tsp seaweed such as wakame ordulse (optional)
- 3 cups water
- 4 tsp Urban Forager Chicken Stock Concentrate
- 300 g chicken breast or thigh (cut into 2-3cm cubes)
- 70 g pasta of your choice (I like broken spaghetti)
- 1 cup water extra
- 1 sprig fresh parsley to serve
Method
- Finely slice the onion
- Heat a medium frypan on medium low heat
- Add the oil and bring to temperature
- Add the onion and cook slowly, stirring as needed, until soft
- Add the pepper, thyme, seaweed, chicken, and vegetables to the pot
- Increase the heat to medium and stir continuously for 2 minutes
- Add all the water and Urban Forager Chicken Stock
- Concentrate to the pot
- Bring the pot to a simmer and simmer for 10 minutes
- Add the pasta and simmer for another 8 minutes or until pasta is cooked
- Add the fresh parsley and serve
Thermomix Instructions
- Place onion in TM bowl and chop at speed 5 for 3 seconds
- Add oil and cook at speed 1, reverse, for 8 minutes on Varoma temp. In the mean time, prepare the vegies and the pasta
- Add garlic and cook at speed 1, reverse, for 2 minutes on Varoma temp.
- Add the pepper, thyme and seaweed to the bowl
- Add vegetables and cook at speed 1, reverse, for 2 minutes on Varoma temp. In the mean time, cut up the chicken
- Lay chicken out on varoma trays, allowing gaps between pieces so steam can circulate
- Add water and stock to TM bowl and cook at speed 1, reverse, for 17 minutes on Varoma temp.
- Add pasta to TM bowl and cook at speed 1, reverse, for 8 minutes on Varoma temp.
- Set the Varoma trays aside (I like to rest them on a plate to catch the juice)
- Pour the cooked vegie noodle soup into a separate bowl or pot, giving the TM bowl a quick scrape
- Pop the cooked chicken pieces into the TM bowl and chop at speed 5 for 5 seconds. This should shred the chicken
- Return the vegie noodle soup mix to the TM bowl
Add the extra cup of water and heat at speed 1, reverse, for 8 minutes on 90C - Season to taste and serve topped with chopped parsley
Notes
This recipe works on a total cooking time of 25 minutes for the chicken, including 8 minutes cooking time for the pasta. Adjust cooking times if your pasta requires more or less cooking time. For example, pasta that needs 5 minutes – cook the vegies and chicken for 20 minutes, then add the pasta and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
