delicious, quick and easy

Bring a pot with two liters of water and 4 teaspoons of vegetable stock to a boil and cook the chicken breast fillets for about 15 minutes. In the meantime, transfer the passata to another pot and reduce the heat to low. Grate the fresh ginger and add it. It’s best to peel the ginger with a teaspoon to avoid damaging the flesh. Then add the soy sauce and squeezed lemon juice and stir. To make the soup as sweet as a Chinese dish, add the sugar and season to taste. The soup can be made more or less sweet to taste. Now remove the chicken from the stock and tear it into small pieces. This works best with two forks. Add the shredded chicken to the soup. Finally, add the coconut milk to the soup. Again, you can use more or less coconut milk to taste. Let the tomato soup simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
