    1. Hi, you can buy chicken chicken bouillon cubes from store to make stock or you can take some chicken pieces with bone in a large sauce pan, add some whole ginger, garlic, cumin, salt and enough water to deep all the ingredients and let them boil for one time. Then turn the heat to low and let them simmer for 1-2 hours. After that cool down the stock and strain it to get your stock.
      Thanks.
