It is also easy to make for a late night supper.

Chinese Crab and Corn Soup

4 cups of chicken stock
15 oz (420g) can creamed corn
6 oz (170g) can crab meat, drained and flaked
6 shallots,  chopped
1 egg white, whisked
dash or two of soy sauce to taste

Add the first 3  ingredients to the crock pot and half of the shallots.  Stir well and turn on the crock pot slow cooker to low and cook for 1 - 2 hours.  Before serving add the egg and the soy sauce.  Sprinkle the remainder of the shallots over the top and serve with some crackers or toast.   If you like a slightly thicker soup then you can thicken with some cornflour. Serves 4.

I like this Chinese Crab and Corn Soup when I want a nice warming soup but have limited time and I hope you try it and enjoy  it too.  To top it off it's probably one of the easiest soups I make as well.
