My Mrs just made Chicken and sweetcorn soup, ala chinese. Very nice it was too. And not from a tin. Home made and all that.

It's dead easy.
2 x tins of Creamed Style sweetcorn (most important that it is cream style)
X amount of chicken, very thinly sliced
1 x beaten egg.
Heat the sweetcorn with some extra water until it reaches boiling point, chuck in the chicken, allow to boil for a bit until it turns white.
Turn the temp down and SLOWLY stir in the beaten egg (too fast and it scrambles)

Ah. My Mrs used a chicken carcass that we had consumed the day before. Boiled it for several hours to get a stock and get the last bits of meat off the bone, ala Spanish style. They boil everything for hours. Then added the sweetcorn, standard stuff not creamed, then the eggs. Very good it was too.
Voila!
