Name of Recipe: Sweet Corn Chicken Soup Ingredients:500g chicken breast, cut into 2cm chunks
2 tsp potato flour or cornflour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp water
1 litre chicken stock
1 can (420g) creamed corn
1 tsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
2 tbsp potato flour mixed with 2 tbsp water
1 beaten egg
Preparation:Place chicken, flour, salt and water into TMX bowl. Hit Turbo 3 times to chop the chicken and mix the meat with marinade. You may need to chop it more, but don’t make mince out of it. Look after each pulse on the Turbo. Remove and keep aside.
Place the chicken stock in TMX bowl and heat for 5 minutes at 100°C on speed 1. Add marinated chicken and cook for 3 minutes at 90°C on reverse + speed 1.
Add creamed corn, sesame oil
and salt and cook for 5 minutes at 90°C on reverse + speed 1. Once the blade is turning then pour in the thickening through the opening in the lid and continue cooking until mixture thickens.
Check to see if you need to add the extra salt Once thickened, slowly pour in the beaten egg through the lid and stir until there are soft strands through the soup. It only takes a few seconds. Stop the TMX and serve.

marmee - Didn't use sesame oil or egg due to allergies here, and had no cornflour, so used double the amount of GF plain flour - and just delicious.
cathy79 - I used my vegie stock concentrate (about 5 desertspoons). And instead of creamed corn, I added a can of chickpeas. I know it goes against the name, but as DH is allergic to corn, that's what I have to do.
Casper - This recipe is also fabulous with the addition of crab meat. Follow the recipe and before you add the egg at the end, spoon in 170g of canned crab meat (drained). If you like, you could leave the egg out entirely since the egg is just to simulate crab meat anyway.
JD - Makes a good 6 serves. I used 400g defatted chicken thigh meat, added 3 finely chopped shallots & 1/2 tspn soy sauce just before pouring the thickening in to give it just that little extra flavour and will cut the potato flour thickening to 1 - 1.5 tblspns next time.
Tam - I used Chelsea's
creamed corn recipe. It turned out as a chowder (but that was because of the delicious creamed corn).
