Chicken Carrot Coconut milk - 3 C's Soup

Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends,in advance !!

Winter or the drizzling rain is the perfect time to sip a bowl of soup to keep you warm and cozy!!Lying comfortably on the couch with a plush or blanket watching TV  and a sipping cup of hot tea or soup makes you real warmer..oh!! the thoughts itself gave me a thermal touch.. all fantasies apart,now adays I hardly find time for watching TV.The soup is also a better way to soothe your throat,Have anyone observed this? After a day's tiring work in the evening sipping soup,the throat feels relaxed.The usual trend for my soup goes with addition of corn starch but this time for a change I had to feed my kidoos to ease their throat (both had cold) and they don't drink it if its more spicy..so I just added the coconut milk at the end and it did wonders.The whole taste of the soup changed,and all liked it  a lot and the rest is in pictures :-)

Ingredients
chicken 250 gms boneless cut thin stripes
carrot 1 cut thin stripes
cilantro 4 sprigs
corn flour 2tbsp
coconut milk 1/2 cup thick
pepper powder 3/4 tsp
salt as required
water 4 cups




Method
Cut and wash the chicken under running water.Drain the excess water and keep aside.
Boil 3 1/2 cups of water in a pan and add in the chicken pieces.Add in the salt and pepper powder required to cook the chicken.
Cook on medium heat for 12- 15 minutes.Add in the chopped carrots,cilantro.Cook for another 5-7minutes.
Mix the corn flour in a little cold water and add to the boiling mix.
The soup will thicken now,adjust salt.Put off the flame.
Prepare the coconut milk and just add to the hot soup.Serve it hot !!


NOTES
- Donot add coconut milk into the boiling soup,wait a while then add when it is still hot.(otherwise it may curdle up)
-I used the maggi coconut milk powder ,you can use the canned ones too,then adjust the amount of water accordingly.


Enjoy this yummy soup after the heavy and tiring lunch on Thanksgiving !!
