Ingredients
- 1 pound lamb meat cut into small pieces
- 2 onions finely chopped
- 2 carrots diced
- 1 parsnip diced
- 1 celery stalk diced
- 2 potatoes peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup rice
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 lemon juice
- 1 handful fresh dill chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large pot, add the lamb meat, onions, carrots, parsnip, and celery. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Skim off any foam that forms on the surface.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 1 hour, or until the lamb meat becomes tender.
- Add the potatoes and rice to the pot and continue simmering for another 15-20 minutes, until they are cooked through.
- In a separate bowl, mix the sour cream with lemon juice until well combined. Slowly add a ladle of the hot soup broth to the sour cream mixture, stirring constantly to prevent curdling.
- Gradually pour the sour cream mixture back into the pot, stirring gently. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
- Remove the pot from heat and sprinkle fresh dill on top. Adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
