Soup for the soul: s-o-t-o-a-y-a-m

Chicken soup, essentially chicken bones and tough bits boiled with a permutation of vegetables and spices. Coloured with turmeric and spiked with a pounded melage of aromatics and spices, the Indonesian version is one of my favourites. This is one of my favourite things to eat in Bali – Soto Ayam from Made’s Warung. Their version is heavily flavoured and packs a small punch of heat. Stir it around with your spoon and scoop up the crunchy sprouts that lie beneath the vermicelli, it is all very good together.
