Chicken Sweet Corn Soup is one of our most favorite indo-chinese soup dish. Whenever we are in a chinese restaurant, I invariably order this soup for myself, no matter what the menu offers. Since this is winter and soup is an integral part of our dinner during week ends, I tried this today and boy ,,, it is damn good. It has a sweet and salty flavor and I have used one green chili also.. ( being a Bong, I cannot ignore the ‘kacha lanka’, you know.. 😉 ) which gives it a hint of spices. You may add some other chopped vegetables as well, like carrot or broccoli but that is purely optional. By the way, I didnot remove the chicken fat from the stock, you may remove it before adding the stock to the soup, if you like it to be more healthy.
