Soto ayam is an everyday Indonesian soup made with a yellow, spiced chicken broth enriched with thin noodles, boiled egg, and bean sprouts. Seasoned with lemon and sambal, it makes a hearty lunch.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Toast the Spices

10 min

Cook the onion, garlic, and ginger in oil over medium heat for 8 minutes, until softened. Add the turmeric and ground coriander and cook for 2 more minutes.

2

Simmer the Chicken

30 min

Add the chicken and water. Cover and simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes, until the meat is tender.

3

Shred the Chicken

5 min

Remove the chicken and shred it. Season the soup with salt.

4

Prepare the Bowls

5 min

Divide the noodles, bean sprouts, and shredded chicken among the bowls.

5

Serve

Pour the hot soup over the ingredients and serve hot with boiled egg and a lemon wedge.

Reminder

Store the soup and noodles in separate containers in the refrigerator for 2 days; if mixed ahead, the noodles will absorb the broth and soften.
