Description

Of course, you can prepare the soup with chicken or meat broth and add pieces of meat, but then it won't be a fasting version. You may add crushed cumin to the soup's sauté if you enjoy spices. I didn't add it, as I was cooking for children. In any case, the soup will be very, very delicious!

Then turn off the heat and let the soup steep for 20–30 minutes so it can absorb all the flavors and aromas.
