Directions:
In a pot boil chicken with water and the instant seasoning until the chicken tender. Take the chicken out and shred the meat. Keep it aside. Add coconut milk to the broth and continue to cook until boiling. Adjust the taste with salt and sugar.
To serve, in a serving bowl arrange some steamed rice or rice dumpling at the bottom. Then top it up with fried potato, vermicelli, bean sprout and shredded chicken meat. Pour the soup over and sprinkle some fried onion. Drizzle some lime juice. Add crackers at the side.
