Add chicken broth and water to fill almost to the top. Rectify seasonning, bring to a boil then cover partially and keep cooking for a good 20- 30 min at medium heat. Once the broth has reduce a little after the 20-30 min you can then add the soup in a food processer. Once all prossed, make sure the seasonning is just right.
Add a tbsp of cream when serving ( you can be creative with the cream and make a little design when slowly letting drip in the bowls.).
And voila!
