1. Wash and clean one chicken preferably a "boiler".
2. Chop one onion, carrots, leeks, a head of celery and a sweet potato into large chunks.
3. Put the chicken in a very large saucepan and fill with cold water to the brim. Bring the saucepan to the boil. Allow to simmer and skim off any dirty water.
4. Once it is clear place all the vegetables along with 2 stock cubes into the saucepan. Allow to simmer on a very low gas ring for approximately 5 hours.
5. Allow the soup to cool and then drain into another saucepan, keeping the chicken + vegetables.
6. Add salt + pepper to taste, dunk piping hot with home made matzo balls and crutons.
