Method:
1. Mix the turmeric, ginger, and coriander and the vinegar
into a paste. Set aside. Saute the onions in the oil only until they are
soft and translucent; THEY MUST NOT BROWN. Add cayenne pepper and the
spice paste. Stir and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. Meanwhile cook the chicken in the water with the
peppercorns until the chicken is very tender. Remove the bones. Add the
spice and onion mixture. Bring to simmering and add salt to taste. Add
rice and cook long enough to heat it through. ServeSpecial:
3. If the onions should brown while sauteing it will make the
soup bitter. Discard them and start over with fresh onions.
