One alternative amongs Soto Banjar famous Indonesian Chicken Soup. Grew up in banjarmasin, capital of South Kalimantan province and this dish now is gaining more popularity. Making the Soto Banjar will take full times and patience but the result is very satisfying. If you're in a hurry or don't have enough time, then you are best to delay it instead of unknown consequences.
In addition to the Spice paste, require seasonings spices herbs Soto Banjar & making it different from other common Indonesian chicken soup. This is one of my favourite husband. Clear chicken soup with curry flavor taste & scent!
Note: in his hometown, spice herbs & spices usually wrapped in cheesecloth and boiled with water and chickens keep inventory. Later I put my method and boiled herbs spices without wrapping them, and then I just strain the stock after that, and the result is fantastic! Taste and smell spices stronger compared to the common method of intensive readings. Since then I don't bother to wrap it anymore. So I recommend you try this method if you prefer a stronger curry flavor in your soup. However, the choice is yours. Last but not least, if necessary discard chicken skin and fat to avoid stocks.

Directions
Combine the chicken broth, water, and parsley and cilantro sprigs in a medium-size soup pot. Bring to a boil and add the chicken breast. Reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until the chicken is just cooked through, about 30 minutes. Remove the chicken and let cool slightly. Shred the meat from the bones in 1 1/2 x 1/2-inch pieces, discarding the skin and bones. Set aside covered. Strain the broth and return it to the pot. Add the potatoes to the broth.
Cut half the shallots and half the garlic lengthwise into very thin slices. Heat the oil in a medium-size nonstick skillet over low heat. Add the sliced shallots and garlic and cook, stirring, until lightly golden and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel to drain. Reserve for garnish. Finely mince the remaining shallots and garlic and the ginger together with the cardamom. Add to skillet and cook uncovered, stirring, over low heat until aromatic, 3 to 4 minutes.
Add this mixture to the broth along with the cinnamon stick, salt, and pepper. Cook covered over medium heat until the potatoes are tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the broth with a slotted spoon.
To assemble, lay out 4 to 6 shallow soup or pasta bowls. Arrange the chicken, pasta, eggs, and potatoes in sections in each bowl, so that it resembles 4 wedges. Heat the broth until piping hot and adjust the seasonings. Discard the cinnamon stick. Ladle the broth into the bowls and sprinkle with the reserved shallots and garlic. Sprinkle the celery leaves or cilantro atop and float a lime slice in the center of each bowl. Serves 6 as a first course, 4 as an entree.
