- Rinse the chicken place it in a large saucepan and cover with 1.75L water.
- Bring to the boil and skim till clear.
- Add in all the vegetables the parsley peppercorns and salt to taste.
- Cover and cook for about 1 hour or possibly 30 min longer if a boiling fowl is used.
- When the leg of the bird can be pulled easily away from the body it is done.
- Take the chicken out strain the broth and throw away the vegetables.
- Pull away the two breasts from the bird skin them and throw away the skin.
- Dice the meat.
- You can do the same with the leg meat if you want the soup to be more substantial otherwise keep the legs for a salad perhaps.
- Pour the broth back into the saucepan and add in the breast meat.
- It can be prepared up to this stage well in advance even the day before.
- About a quarter of an hour before the soup is to be served bring it back to the boil and add in the rice.
- Cover and cook for about 8 min.
- Let it cold off the heat for 5 min.
- Make the sauce while the soup is cooling: Add in a ladleful of chicken broth to the egg mix slowly and beat together for 1 minute and then add in another ladleful and beat.
- By now the sauce will be hot so you can pour it slowly into the soup off the heat and stir vigorously to mix.
- Hot the soup up over a very very gentle heat otherwise the Large eggs may cook although the cornflour will safeguard against which.
- Serve immediately with a plate of lemon quarters on the table and fresh bread.
- This very delicious soup could be served either as a first course or possibly as a meal in itself for an informal occasion or possibly a family lunch.
