Chicken and sweetcorn soup:

Take 2 pre-cooked chicken breasts, diced, and cover them with about three tablespoons of sherry and one teaspoon of ground ginger.

Make a pint of chicken stock, bring it to the boil, and add two teaspoons of cornflour dissolved in a bit of water, stir until thickened. Add the chicken, and about half a cup to a full cup of sweetcorn, depending on how much you like sweetcorn ;).

Generally, to decorate it, you'd add one egg white (no yolk) to the boiling soup and stir rapidly to create a feathered effect, but that can be omitted if it's going to make people feel worse :).

It's my cheer-up soup for all occasions even if I did once spill it on my hand fresh from the pan and gave myself a burn severe enough to warrant a degree ^^. Can't remember which one, mind.
