Very nice chicken soup. Can I add a little different way if you dont mind. After frying the onions and the tomatoes, not completely, then pass it through a blender so that you shouldn’t get the onions strips in your mouth. Then proceed to make the soup. Thanks.
Good suggestion Aspy. Will give it a try next time.
Add cloves with the cinnamon. Cloves are big bacteria fighters. One can add ground clove powder but do add it to your chicken soup recipe.
Dear Rashna,
Yes, good idea. Adding to soup next time.Cloves are indeed good for getting rid of bacteria.
Many use these as mouth freshners.
Plus cloves make your tooth ache less painful. Just suck on a clove during a toothache.
Thanks for the good advice,
Rita
