Why You're Going To Love This Recipe
There's so much to love about this delicious and flavour-packed soup:
- Quick & Easy - My favourite thing about this soup is that it's ready in less than 30 minutes! Amazing, right!?
- Kid-Friendly - This is by far my sons favourite soup recipe - he absolutely loves it (and he's not a massive fan of soup!)
- Freezer-Friendly - make a big batch and pop any leftovers in the freezer. It tastes just as delicious after it's been defrosted and reheated. YUM!
- Versatile - I love making this soup with leftover rotisserie chicken from the supermarket for a quick and easy option, or I'll poach a chicken breast or two if I've got time on my hand. You can also use poached chicken thighs or tenderloins if you prefer. Follow our guide for poaching chicken breasts in your Thermomix here.
What You Need
Just a few basic ingredients are needed for this family-friendly soup recipe.
Note: please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.
- spring onions - also known as scallions. These can be omitted if you prefer.
- garlic - I tend to use minced garlic as it's an easier option, but you can absolutely use minced garlic cloves if you prefer.
- olive oil
- corn - I use a combination of creamed corn and corn kernels in this recipe. They can both be bought in tins from the supermarket.
- chicken stock - use store-bought chicken liquid stock or make your own by mixing 1 teaspoon of chicken stock powder to every 1 cup of water.
- chicken - the best thing about this soup is that you can use a supermarket rotisserie chicken for a super quick and easy option or you can poach your own chicken breasts, thighs or tenderloins if you have some time on your hand.
- flavourings - soy sauce and sweet chilli sauce give this soup the most amazing flavour kick! Don't skip them!
- cornflour - the dissolved cornflour slightly thickens the soup and gives it a delicious texture.
- egg whites - this gives the soup a traditional Chinese takeout texture - it's the BEST!!!!

This is the EASIEST soup ever, but here's a few tips that help to make it perfect every single time!
These two ingredients are SO important to this recipe! The cornflour slightly thickens the soup while the egg whites give the soup its traditional Chinese takeout texture.
Absolutely! I often add a packet of 2 minute noodles to the soup just before adding the sauces, cornflour and egg whites. This gives the soup an extra hearty kick (and the kids love it!).
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days before reheating.
Freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Allow to defrost before reheating or reheat from frozen.
