Directions

  1. 1

    Chicken wash. Put the chicken, 3 litres of water, laurel, cloves and juniper in a pot and let it simmer for about 1 hour. Wash and halve the onions. Clean, peel and halve carrots.

  2. 2

  3. 3

  4. 4

    Let simmer for about 20 minutes. In the meantime drain the pineapple. Clean, wash and cut the rest of the leek into thin rings. Cut the pineapple into small pieces. Roast the almonds in a pan without fat at medium heat for about 3 minutes until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Cut the chicken meat into thin slices. Add leek, pineapple and meat to the soup about 5 minutes before the end of the cooking time. Refine curry soup with cream and season to taste with salt and cayenne pepper.
