• Reduce heat and tilt lid to let soup simmer about 4 hours.
• Strain fat from top of broth.
• Carefully remove vegetables into a bowl to let cool.
• Carefully remove chicken, it's HOT! and let rest while you strain the broth through a metal strainer into a smaller pot.
• Mix all meatball ingredients together in a large bowl, being careful not to over-mix. In a large saucepan, add two or three generous ladles of chicken soup broth.
• Form small meatballs and cook in soup broth simmering until cooked, about 10 minutes. Add to strained broth.
• While meatballs are cooking, slice carrots and celery, and shred or slice chicken and add to strained broth.
• Now, I put some noodles into the bowl and add a ladle of soup on top and top it with grated cheese. (We're Italian. Cheese goes on everything.).

SPICED CHICKEN MEATBALLS WITH NOODLES, BASIL & BROTH

Steps:

• Whizz the onion, ginger, chillies, garlic, white pepper and half of the coriander stalks, roots (if using) and leaves in a food processor until finely chopped. Mix the milk and breadcrumbs together in a large bowl. Add the onion mix and chicken into the breadcrumbs, then season. Now, really mix - I mean mix - until the whole thing becomes a paste rather than lumpy. If you have a tabletop mixer, then use that instead of your hands. Shape into small balls around the size of a 50p piece. Place a large frying pan or casserole over a medium heat, add a drizzle of oil then fry the balls until well coloured - about 10 mins. You'll need to do this in batches, adding more oil each time. Set aside.
• For the broth, put the stock into a large saucepan, bring to the boil, then simmer. Add the sesame oil, fish sauce, ginger, remaining coriander stalks and roots, star anise and peppercorns. Simmer, covered, for 20 mins. Add the spring onions, noodles and chillies, if using. Take 6 large bowls, then divide the noodles between them - tongs are the best tool. Drop in the warm meatballs then ladle in the stock. Scatter with coriander and basil leaves then tuck in.
