Directions

  1. 1

    Clean, wash and roughly cut the soup greens into pieces. Peel and halve the onion. Wash the chicken breast and legs and put them in a pot with the soup vegetables, onion halves, peppercorns and some salt.

  2. 2

    Pour about 2 litres of cold water on it, so that the meat is covered, and boil everything up. Simmer covered over medium heat for about 40 minutes. In the meantime clean and wash the green asparagus and carrots.

  3. 3

    Cut asparagus diagonally into bite-sized pieces, carrots into thin slices. Clean the mushrooms. Heat oil in a pan and fry the mushrooms briefly. Season with salt and pepper and remove.

  4. 4

    Press the sausage meat as small dumplings from the skin into the hot frying fat and fry all around, turning. Take out and put aside. Lift the chicken meat out of the stock and pour the stock through a sieve.

  5. 5

    Measure out 1 litre of broth. Heat the fat in a saucepan and sauté the flour in it. Add the stock and 150 g cream while stirring and bring to the boil. Add carrots, green asparagus and frozen peas and let everything simmer for about 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Stir now and then. Remove meat from bones and skin and cut into bite-sized pieces. Drain the white asparagus. Wash the chervil, dab dry and pluck off the leaves, except for something to garnish.

  7. 7

    Add the mushrooms, meatballs, asparagus and chicken to the sauce and bring to the boil again. Mix egg yolk and 50 g cream and stir into the fricassee. Season to taste with vermouth, salt, pepper and some lemon juice.

  8. 8

    Serve sprinkled with chervil and garnished. Ribbon noodles taste good with it.
