Greek egg and lemon soup
A delicious chicken based soup. Serve with warm pitta bread.
What you need
- 1 1/2 l good chicken stock
- 50 g long grain rice, rinsed well
- 2 large eggs, hard-boiled and shelled
- juice of 1 lemon
- seasoning
- 6 tsp fresh parsley, chopped
Method
Put stock into a pan and bring to boil. Season. Add rice and simmer for 10-12 min or until rice is tender.
Just before serving: Beat the eggs with the lemon juice. Whisk in a ladleful of the hot stock. Then pour the mixture back into the pan, stirring all the time.
Reheat over a low heat until the soup thickens and looks creamy - do not boil, or the eggs will curdle. Stir in the chopped parsley and serve at once
