Method
Step 1
Take a pot, put water, chicken and onions and let them cook on medium to low flame for 30 minutes till the meat is so soft it comes off easily from the bone. Now remove the chicken and onion from the stock, debone and shred it. Put the shredded chicken back in stock. Add salt, Chinese salt and stir. Mix arrow root in water and gently stirring pour it in the stock.
Step 2
Now pour beaten egg into the soup very slowly and gently stir. Remove the soup from heat. Serve with sauces.
Tip
Arrowroot is used instead of corn flour to avoid cloudy gravies or soup. Arrow root thickens the sauces and still lets them stay clear.
