A hearty classic, also known as sick-day chicken soup, made with chicken broth, vermicelli, and carrots, then finished with a lemony egg tempering. Served hot, it is filling and comforting when you have a cold.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Cook the chicken

30 min

Simmer the chicken in water, skimming off the foam. Once cooked, shred the meat, strain the broth, and return both to the pot.

2

Cook the vermicelli and carrot

12 min

Add the carrot and vermicelli to the chicken broth and cook until tender. Stir in the shredded chicken and salt.

3

Prepare the egg mixture

3 min

Whisk the egg yolk and lemon juice in a bowl. Gradually whisk in a few ladles of hot soup to temper the mixture.

4

Combine

3 min

Slowly stir the egg mixture into the soup and heat without bringing it to a boil. The egg will curdle if the soup boils.

5

Drizzle with oil and serve

2 min

Melt the butter in a small pan and stir in the Turkish red pepper flakes. Drizzle over the soup and serve.

Reminder

Important: To add the egg mixture to the soup, slowly whisk in a few ladles of hot broth to temper it. Then stir it into the soup and heat without boiling, or the egg will curdle. Skim the foam while simmering the chicken broth for a clear soup. Contains egg and wheat (vermicelli).

Ölçüleri göz kararı yaptım, biraz tuzlu oldu. Ocaktan erken aldım, içi tam pişmemiş. Fırın sıcaklığını yanlış ayarlamışım, alt kısmı fazla kızardı.
