- In a large stockpot add chicken, cloves of Garlic, one large onion roughly chopped, carrot, celery stock, bay leaves, peppercorns and one tablespoon of rock salt(Adjust the salt according to your taste). Add water and let then boil in a medium flame. Let the stock simmer for at least about an hour.
- Once done turn off the stove, remove the vegetables and bones through a slotted spoon. These aren’t good to eat because they have been cooking for an hour as all the nutritional value would have cooked out of them. So it is best to discard them.
