Remove the skin from chicken and chop it up into small bits. Using a pair of cooking scissors helps to cut through the thick fat.

Roughly chop up 2 bunches of spring onions and ¾ of the ginger. Slice a bulb of garlic in half.

Add a glug of oil to the pan and gently cook the half of the chopped spring onions along with your ginger and garlic for 2 mins until its fragrant but before it takes on any colour in the pan.

Add in the whole de-skinnned chicken and enough cold water to cover the chicken. Add the remaining chopped spring onions and simmer for 1 hour until the chicken is cooked.

Take the chicken out of the stock and pull off the meat. Add the bones back into the stock and allow to simmer on a gentle heat for as long as you can. It'll need 1 hour at the very least.

Bash up the remaining garlic, ginger, red chillies in a pestle and mortar with a large pinch of flaky sea salt to form a chunky paste.

Heat up a saucepan with the chicken fat and a small glug of oil. Fry until golden and crispy on a very low heat for 5 mins. Then add in the chilli paste and cook for a further 10 mins on a very low heat until the skin is crispy and the oil is stained red.

Finely chop the remaining spring onions and coriander.

Add the udon to a bowl, add the soup, top with fresh spring onions and the chilli sauce. Enjoy.
