Chicken and Sweet Corn Soup Recipe #252932
I've been working on this recipe for a while. I wanted it to taste like the one you get from Chinese restaurants. So after a few months of adding ingredients I think I've nailed it on the head. It tastes just like the one from an authentic Chinese restaurant.
