🥣 Milky Vermicelli Soup (For 6 People)

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup barley vermicelli
  • 5 cups water
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon dried mint or finely chopped dill (for serving for)

Preparation:

  1. Melt the butter and oil in a medium-sized pot.

  2. Add the orzo and fry lightly, sauté for 4-5 minutes until the color changes slightly.

  3. Add 5 cups of hot water and stir.

  4. Cook over medium heat until the orzo softens (about 10-12 minutes).

  5. Then slowly add 2 cups of milk, stir and let it boil.

  6. Season with salt and pepper. Boil for another 2-3 minutes and remove from heat.

  7. Serve by sprinkling dried mint or garnishing with dill, if desired.

👩‍🍳 Tip

  • Constantly stirring the soup after adding the milk will prevent it from curdling.
  • If a thicker consistency is desired, 1 tablespoon of flour can be sautéed with the oil.
