  • 2 large onions, finely chopped
  • 1 medium leek, washed well and finely chopped
  • 200 g white button mushrooms, washed well and sliced

  • 300 ml milk
  • 2 chicken stock cubes
  • 35 g salted soft butter
  • 30 g plain flour
  • salt and ground pepper

For the ham and mustard toastie:

  • 200 g good quality cooked ham, cut into very small pieces
  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp seed mustard, heaped
  • 2 tbsp dried breadcrumbs, heaped
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 pinch pepper
  • 4 slices thick white bread, crust on

Instructions
 

To make the chicken soup

  • Place the chicken thighs, onions, leeks, mushrooms, water, milk, and stock cubes into a pan. Season with a little salt and pepper and bring to a simmer, then cook for 20 minutes.
  • Add a dash of pepper and salt, boil, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the cooked thighs and the bone, then chop the chicken into very small pieces.
  • Place the stock back onto the heat, mix the flour and softened butter and whisk into the soup, then bring to a simmer to thicken.
  • Once thickened, liquidise until you have a fine puree. Pour back into a saucepan with the cooked chicken pieces, reheat and season if needed. The cream can be added as an optional extra.

To make the ham and mustard toastie

  • Place the ham, mayo, mustard, breadcrumbs and egg yolks into a bowl and mix well
  • Preheat a grill to medium heat and toast the bread on both sides.
  • Pile the ham mix onto one side, making a nice dome in the middle and pop it under the grill until you have a nice glaze - take your time, so it glazes, sets and does not burn all at the same time.
  • Cut into diagonal slices and serve with the soup.
