Method

Step 1 of 6

Place chicken and parsley stems in a large, deep pan. Cover with water. Bring to the boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, skimming surface occasionally, for 40 minutes or until cooked through. Remove pan from heat. Allow to cool.

Step 2 of 6

When cool enough to handle, transfer chicken to a chopping board. Remove and chop meat. Discard skin and bones. Strain cooking liquid through a fine sieve over a large bowl. Return liquid to a clean pan, place over high heat and bring to the boil. Add carrot, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until tender.

Meanwhile, sift flour into a bowl. Finely chop 2 of the spring onions and 1/3 cup of parsley leaves. Stir into flour with the cheese. Add butter and 3/4 cup water. Season with salt and pepper. Stir with a knife to form a soft dough.
