Lamb Pit Soup
Description
The recipe won't take much time. To prepare lamb piti soup, first simmer the meat and chickpeas thoroughly in a casserole dish. Then add the remaining ingredients. The final touch is a beaten egg, which is poured into the dish and coagulates inside. Let's go step by step: 1. First, place the chopped lamb and a whole onion into the casserole dish. Pour in water and bring to a boil. Skim off the foam, then add chickpeas. Simmer over low heat for 4 hours. 2. Remove and discard the onion, then add diced potatoes, tomato, herbs, salt, pepper, and saffron. Mix everything, cover with a lid, and occasionally open to stir. 3. After 10–15 minutes, pour in the beaten egg. The piti is ready in 2–3 minutes, once the egg has set. Serve the soup in the casserole dish or portion into bowls. Makes 4–5 servings.
