Directions

  1. “Sabzi ash” (herb soup) involves washing and finely chopping fresh mint, parsley, cilantro, and spinach. ≈ 8 min
  2. In a pot, pour in three cups of water and cook the vegetables and rice.
  3. Once the rice is cooked and the broth has thickened, finely chop an onion and sauté it in a pan with turmeric and salt.
  4. Next, add the onion to the soup after pouring in the lemon zest broth.
  5. Next, add a few drops of elderflower cordial to flavour the soup, then prepare the mint tea and pour it over the soup. ≈ 3 min
  6. If we want to make a pineapple soup, a tomato soup, an orange soup, a vinegar soup, a plum soup, or an apricot soup, instead of using plums, we can add each of the ingredients mentioned in the soup to achieve the desired result. ≈ 3 min
