Take a Seat Manos Lemon Orzo Soup
Lemon Chicken Rice soup move over! My grandmother gave me this recipe a few years ago, she had received it from an old greek man over 30 years ago. Today i came across it and decided to give it a whirl. WOW! For how simple this recipe is it is absolutely unreal! ENJOY friends!
Greek Orzo Soup
1/2 cup onion, chopped (i used purple onions and used the slap chop till they were super fine)
1 cup celery, chopped (same as above, very fine)
2 Tbsp butter
4 cups of water
2 cubes of chicken base powder
2 cups of liquid chicken stock
1 cup orzo kernals aka orzo noodles
2 eggs
1/2 cup Realemon juice
Fry onion and celery in butter on medium low for 15 mins, stirring frequently in a stock pot. Making sure not too burn. Add water, bring to a boil. Add orzo and chicken base and stock. Return to a hard boil. Separate egg yolk. Beat egg yolk first, while stirring soup continuously add the yolks. Do the same with the egg whites, continuously stirring. Add the lemon juice last, remove from heat completely and let soup sit for at least 10 mins.
Garnish with a dash of dill!
SOOOOO GOOD! i promise!
