I can confidently say that hardly any man in this world will remain indifferent to this dish. Meat dishes are a specialty of people from the East, and this soup is a perfect example. Moreover, homemade harcho made with lamb is in no way inferior to restaurant versions. To achieve just that, I recommend following our step-by-step recipe. Where is it, you ask?

1st: wash and cut the meat into small pieces. Then place it into a pot and pour water over it. Put the pot on the stove and simmer the broth for 60–90 minutes. During the last 30 minutes, you can add some herbs. Important point(!): watch the broth carefully—once foam starts forming, remove it immediately and reduce the heat so that the broth simmers gently.

3rd step: Don't waste time—while the meat is boiling, we keep moving. Chop the onion and throw it into a frying pan previously filled with vegetable oil. Fry until golden brown. Then add a couple of tablespoons of broth to the onion and simmer over low heat. After 5 minutes, add the prepared tomatoes and cook for another 10 minutes.

The broth should come to a boil again, then reduce the heat and let the soup simmer. After a couple of minutes, add bay leaf, basil, and peppercorns. Cook for another 5 minutes.
