Good easy recipe but well flavoured. It deserves a good quality chicken stock, not powder or cubes. I also added a chopped eggplant half I had in the fridge and topped the soup with avocado on serving. Very nice with a piece of crusty sourdough for lunch or a light supper.
A simple soup with a lot of flavor. Perfect for lunch on a winter’s day.
