Time 3h20m

Yield 3 1/2 Litres

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/4 kg chicken, cut into 8 pieces
ginger, cut into 10 shards
10 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 bunch green shallot, cut in half crossways
1 cup red onion, roughly chopped
6 liters cold water

Steps:

  • Rinse the chicken under cold water and trim away any excess fat.
  • Place chicken and all remaining ingredients in a 10-litre stockpot and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer, skimming with a ladle to remove any impurities. Turn down the heat until the surface of the stock is barely moving and cook for 2 hours, skimming as required.
  • Remove stock from the heat, strain the stock through muslin and store in refrigerator for up to 3 days or in freezer for 2-3 months.
