Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 kg mixed bones (beef, venison, pork and chicken) – cut as small as possible
  • 2 pigs trotters
  • 750g of beef trimmings – from the shin, back strap, neck & clod etc (optional but it will make a more substantial broth)
  • 3 onions, unpeeled and quartered
  • 300g ginger, unpeeled – sliced in half
  • 10 cloves of garlic - unpeeled
  • 4 cardamom pods
  • 5 star anise
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 6 cloves
  • 2 tsp coriander seeds
  • 2 strips of dried orange peel (dry your own)
  • 75ml sweet chilli sauce – or cider vinegar.
  • 50ml fish sauce
  • 50ml soya sauce
  • 1 tbsp rock or soft light brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp miso
  • A couple of handfuls of mixed veg (leek and fennel tops, celery and carrots)
  • Put the bones back in the saucepan, cover with water, add the mixed vegetables and bring back to the simmer. Simmer for a couple of hours – don’t worry if it boils.
  • Char the onions, garlic and ginger under the grill or in a hot dry griddle pan until blackened all over. Peel off and discard any really burnt bits and add what’s left to the sauce pan.
  • Add the spices and sweet chilli sauce or vinegar.
  • Simmer for as long as you can – up to 24 hours if you have an Aga or slow cooker.
  • Return to the saucepan and add the fish and soya sauces, miso and sugar. Add half to start with and taste as you go.
