  4. Add water and the roasted carcase and simmer for 30 minutes.
  5. Add cream and reduce by half on a fast boil.

  7. Add the chopped chives, chopped pancake, chicken pieces and the grain mustard to your serving bowls add the hot soup on top.

Directions (Pancake):

  1. All mix together, blitz with a blender and cook in a hot non stick frying pan. Once cooled cut into pieces
