At the bottom of each bowl add slices of boiled egg and carrot then the chopped up meat about a couple of large spoonfuls or more and after you have filled the bowls pour hot broth over the contents in each bowl. Place them in the fridge and they become like Jell-O. Remove the contents of one bowl slice and eat. You can splash with some vinegar, fresh lemon juice…
