Soto Ayam

Method

1. 1

   Simmer chicken with lemongrass 30 minutes; shred the meat, keep the broth.

2. 2

   Fry blended shallot, garlic and turmeric; pour into the broth and simmer 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Build bowls: noodles, sprouts, chicken, hot gold broth.

4. 4

   Serve with lime and sambal — finishing the bowl is the diner's art.

   💡 The broth should be aggressively yellow. Timid turmeric makes sad soto.
