Chicken Noodle Soup

I have had an exciting culinary weekend during which I ate Wildebeest and Ostrich burgers, biltong and dim sum, so when I got back I thought I would try something vaguely oriental - inspired as I was by the dim sum (and my almost successful attempts at using chopsticks - the steamed pork buns almost all made it from steamer to mouth without a stop on the floor in-between), and also by the desire to eat something that wasn't too heavy, after all the rich food I had consumed over the last few days

So here is my attempt at chicken noodle soup

Flatbread

So you are making soup.  What do you choose to accompany it?  I like to have some fresh bread on the table (not too much, because it triggers flashbacks to childhood when my mother would chastise me for filling up on bread.  'Eat your meat, not all that bread' she would nag.  Anyway, I digress...)

A really easy bread type recipe that goes really well with just about any soup is a flatbread.  Its not too hard to make, and is pretty light, so even my mother wouldn't mind me eating it
