Manchow Chicken Clear Soup

Method

1. 1Heat sesame oil, fry ginger, garlic and spring-onion whites for 1 minute on high.
2. 2Add finely chopped chicken, stir-fry till just opaque, then add all vegetables.
3. 3Pour in stock, soy sauce, vinegar, white pepper and salt; gently bubble 6 minutes till veg is just tender-cook until crunchy.
4. 4Stir cornflour paste into the soup over low heat — clear soup just glazes slightly, never gloops.
5. 5Taste, balance with a splash more vinegar if needed.
6. 6Ladle into bowls, finish with spring-onion greens; serve very hot.
