- 4 cups chicken stock

- 1 tbsp celery finely chopped ( I don't use them since my daughtie does not like them)
- 2 eggs

- 2 spring onions ( I don't use them for kids)
Method:
Boil the cleaned chicken with 5 cups of water 1 onion ,1/2 tomato, pepper and salt. ( this is how my mom used to get the stock)
Strain the stock out.
Combine the stock, creamed corn, salt and pepper and boil.( I also don't use ajinomoto if you need add at this stage 1 tsp)
