1 stalk lemongrass cut in half lengthwise
2 3/4 cups carrots peeled and coarsely chopped
1 leek coarsely chopped
2 1/16 cups celery diced
1 bunch coriander chopped
1 chicken breast on the bone with skin, about 650 g
10 black peppercorns

7 13/16 cups mushrooms halved

3 tablespoons sunflower oil
1 11/16 cups coconut milk

4 tablespoons soy sauce

1
Put the chicken, celery, carrots, leek, cilantro, lemongrass and peppercorns in a large saucepan. Add 6 cups water, season with salt and pepper and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 45 mins until the chicken is cooked through.

Remove the chicken from the broth and cool. Pour the broth through a fine sieve and discard the solids. Return the broth to the saucepan. Remove the skin and bones from the chicken and dice the meat. Add the coconut milk mixture to the broth along with the diced chicken. Bring to a simmer and warm through. Season with the soy sauce and salt and pepper. Ladle the soup into four bowls, garnish with the reserved scallion and serve.
