Ingredients
2 sticks celery, cut into 4cm pieces
150g carrots, halved
1 onion, quartered
2 bay leaves
2 sprigs thyme
2 tsp black peppercorns
Bones from a roast chicken
Method
1
Put the chicken bones in a large saucepan, breaking them to fit them in the pan if necessary. Add 2 litres cold water – it should cover the bones by about a cm. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes, skimming off and discarding any scum that rises.
2
Add the celery, carrot, onion, bay leaves, thyme and peppercorns. Bring back to the boil, cover the pan and simmer very gently for 2 - 3 hours.
3
Strain through a sieve and eat straight away or cool and store in the fridge.
