Kavurma Soup Recipe (Serves 6)

Type: Soup Preparation Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 30 minutes Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 200 grams kavurma (preferably homemade or high quality ready kavurma)
  • 1 cup noodles (or orzo)
  • 1 onion (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 6 cups broth or hot water
  • Salt, black pepper
  • Optional: chili pepper, thyme
  • For serving: lemon slice or yogurt

How to make

  1. Heat the pot: Heat the butter and oil in the pot. Add the onions and fry until they turn pink.

  2. Add the Roasted Meat: Add the diced roasted meat to the pot and fry for 2-3 minutes.

  3. Fry the Tomato Paste: Add the tomato paste and fry until the smell comes out.

  4. Add the Noodles: Add the noodles (or orzo) and stir for 1-2 minutes, then add the broth.

  5. Adjust the Spices: Add salt, black pepper and spices of your choice.

  6. Boil: Let the soup simmer over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and cook until the noodles are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  7. Serving: Serve hot. You can squeeze lemon on top or serve with yogurt.

Tip: Be careful not to overcook the kavurma, as it can harden. The version made with broth is more flavorful.
