What about this recipe ?

Not sure if that link works, I’ll post a photo

Chicken carcass or wings, chopped, onion, carrot, celery, (leek if you have one) cover with water, season, boil then simmer at least 2 hours. let it sit at 1/2 hour, strain, put in fridge until cold, then out in containers and freeze.

This thread has reminded me what a good soup a relatively cheap chicken leg makes.
Will buy one today, plus an onion and celery. I have carrots and apples. I will cut a lot of the chicken skin off as I don't like it too fatty. Any left over will be the basis for a more carroty soup with some extra stock. It certainly is soup and sandwich lunch time weather now.

Melanie thank you for that recipe! It sounds delicious. I’ve never thought of putting apple in chicken soup.

Thanks Melanie, I’ll give that recipe a go. If I remember rightly my original recipe involved cooking the chicken leg first but this one sounds delicious and less faddle.

I make a version like this, and I cook the chicken legs first, which sounds closer to the one you remember. I put two large chicken legs in a pan with a chopped onion, a carrot, and a stick of celery, cover them with cold water, and simmer gently for about 40 minutes until the meat is tender. Then I lift the legs out, take the meat off the bone, and strain the stock. I cook a peeled and chopped eating apple in the stock with another chopped carrot for about 15 minutes, until soft, then put the shredded chicken back in with a little salt and pepper. If I want it a bit thicker, I mash some of the apple and carrot into the stock before adding the chicken. It keeps the apple flavor gentle and not sweet, and it is lovely with crusty bread.

Photoshot, thanks Melanie61
Looks delicious.
Hopefully I can magnify.

Now the weather has turned chilly there is nothing better than home made chicken soup .
To be honest I don't follow a recipe .
I start by frying about six chicken legs until the skin is golden .
I fry one or two onions some carrits and celery .
And cover with water.
I add a Maggi cube.
Bring to boil and simmer .
When failing from the bone I add pureed garlic maybe a squeeze of lemon and any vegetable at hand .
Plus herbs.
I haven't added an apple -but I could .

Sometimes I'll turn it into a curry by just adding rice and curry spices .
Or a tagine by adding couscous and tagine spices plus chopped dried apricots.
It really is something that I throw together.
I'm off shopping today and I'll be buying some chicken legs.
You've reminded me how much I love this staple.

Ah margarethughes I think that is my recipe, thank you so much. Can’t try it out until the weekend when my supermarket delivery arrives but really looking forward to it.

My Mulligtawny recipe - a lovely warming winter soup - uses apple. Onion, celery, carrots, rice, curry powder, chicken stock, and TBH I just add scraps from a roast chicken carcass. Plus the stock from the carcass, if the roast was recent.
Enough rice makes it a main meal.

These look good,thanks everyone. I downloaded the Melanie, thanks Melanie.

The Melanie one I meant

Mmm a spoonful of curry paste in with it.
