TSHORBA - Thick Rice Soup

Tshorba is an easy light meal which can be eaten as described or with other vegetables or as part of a wider menu.

Ingredients

1 cup rice

chicken wing or neck or similar

100 grams tomato puree

pinch salt and pepper

1 teaspoon of 'all spice'

half teaspoon turmeric

1 or 2 courgettes

1 large onion

3 tablespoons of chicken stock

Procedure

Cut/slice onions and fry in a medium saucepan. Grate the courgettes with a wide grater, and add to the onions together with all the remaining ingredients. Add say 3 cups of water and bring to boil. Simmer on a low heat for say 2 hours. Add water if necessary to create the right texture for you. Some like it thick and others might prefer a more fluid 'soup'.

Add other vegetables to your taste, but it is quickly made, and requires little of your time.

Try it!
