How to Make Chicken Stock from Chicken Frame
*
I usually don't use chicken stock due to the MSG in the stock cubes. The following is how I make chicken stock from chicken frame and other chicken parts.

Ingredients (for the above soup to serve 4)
===========================================
1 chicken frame (includes the neck, body frame and legs)
1 liter of water

Method
-
1. Put chicken frame and parts into a pot. Pour the water into the pot.
2. Put to a boil, then reduce heat to medium. Cook for 1 hour.

P/s: If you are cooking the ABC soup, put all chicken frame and parts, plus all the vegetables into the pot to cook together in water. Your ABC soup will be ready in 1 hour after adding salt to taste.
