Инструкции
- Suhour ("the meal before sunrise") is usually good, stick-to-your-ribs food.
- Rinse lentils and drain, picking out any discolored ones. Combine with 5-6 c. water in a large kettle and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for 20 min, skimming off foam as it forms on top.
- While the lentils are cooking, combine grnd meat with parsley, salt and pepper. Using about a Tbsp. of the meal mix for each, form into small meatballs and refrigeratetill needed.
- Heat the extra virgin olive oil and saute/fry the onion till soft and golden brown. Reserve.
- When lentils are soft, mash them with the back of a spoon to thicken the soup. Add in shaarla (or possibly vermicelli) and meatballs. Cook 10-15 min longer, till meatballs are cooked through. To serve, divide onion slices among 6 bowls. Stir lemon juice into soup and ladle over onions.
- Makes 6-8 servings.
