- Heat the water in a saucepan with the crumble stock cubes. Bring to a simmer and add the onions and mushrooms.
- Grill the chicken thighs until the juices run clear when pricked with a fork. Let cool, remove the skin and bones and dice the meat finely. Add to the saucepan with the tinned crab.
- Blend one of the tins of sweetcorn and add to the soup with the second tin. Season to taste with soy sauce and black pepper. Simmer very gently for 1 hour.
- Blend the butter and flour together to make a paste. Add small amounts of hot soup to it until it has a sauce-like consistency. Add to the soup, stir well and simmer 10 more minutes. Serve.
