Hakka Ka Chiam Ma Chicken Soup

Chicken cooked/stewed in Ka Chiam Ma or dried motherworts. A very popular dish loved by many at home, but for people outside our region, they may not like it at all.
There are many ways to cook this dish. We love them all. We can't find this in Australia, and haven't had the luck with Asian shops so far as well, so we brought this herbs all the way from Borneo. The herbs kept well in the pantry for a long time. It is nice to have it once in a while whenever i crave for food from home.

Wholesome Chicken Soup Wholesome Chicken Soup
This is a soup I make for myself based off of 3 different recipes and with slight Asian influences (soy sauce, Chinese rice wine). Its very healthy and the broth is very rich. Turmeric is optional but delicious, looks tasty, and is anti-inflammatory. Sour cream rounds out the flavor and can help with texture if you decide to freeze leftovers for later. Cierra H. -

Wicked Thai chicken soup Wicked Thai chicken soup
My workplace has this soup every Friday. I didn't just want to wait till Friday of the following week to have the soup so I hunted a recipe down! A mention about the lemon grass, remove the outer layers, finely chop a length about 4-5 inches long, then chop it again! Or put it in one of those mini choppers if you have one.. you want it as finely chopped as possible. And last but not least, thank you as always to my hubby for the photography of my cooking!! kokomayla -
Lemon chicken soup Lemon chicken soup
I decided to try something new and ordered the lemon chicken from a Chineese restaurant, it was really good. I really like soup and was looking up lemon chicken soup recipes, they all involved a croc-pot. I am not a big croc-pot user, so I decided to try to come up with something inspired from the recipe i saw online. I saute the vegetables before putting in soup to save time. It came out very good. I also like to cook chicken myself & not use rotisserie chicken from the store in soup. Elyse Rose -

Healing chicken soup Healing chicken soup
Garlic is known to heal a variety of ailments, so mama and I call this the healing soup. It is very simple but tastes wonderful when you prepare it this way. Carrots and celery can be added for extra color and flavor, but if you have an upset tummy, simple is best(just noodles,chicken,and garlic,no vegetables). oceanside.dream -
