PalÓcleves Lamb Soup With Sour Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 6-qt. saucepan over medium-high heat; add lamb, and cook, stirring, until browned all over, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer lamb to a plate; set aside. Add garlic, bay leaves, onion, salt, and pepper to pot, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 15 minutes. Add lamb, paprika, and 4 cups water; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, covered and stirring occasionally, until lamb is barely tender, about 20 minutes. Add potatoes and beans, and cook, stirring occasionally, until lamb and vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. In a small bowl, stir together sour cream and flour until smooth; add to soup, and stir until smooth and slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. To serve, ladle soup into 4 serving bowls, swirl with more sour cream, if you like, and garnish with dill.

Steps:

• In a 2 quarts pot fry the onion on the hot oil until golden brown.
• Set aside for a short time, and then mix in the Hungarian paprika, and two cups of hot water.
• Put back on the medium fire, add the meat dices, some salt, caraway, garlic and bay leaf, reduce the heat, and on slow fire simmer covered for about 1 and the half hours, or until the meat is tender.
• Continuously add water if needed.
• While the meat simmers in a small pot boil the diced potatoes in some salted water (about 10-12 minutes), then set aside.
• Boil the French bean pieces in a cup of salted water (about 10-12 minutes) and set them aside too.
• Do not overcook the bean!
• If you use green beans, add some bicarbonate of soda to the water to keep the fresh green color of the bean.
• In a small bowl mix well the sour cream and the flour with 1/4 cup of water using a whisk.
• When the meat is tender, add the potatoes and the bean with the simmering water, then mix in the sour cream thickening and simmer another 5 minutes.
• If you think that the soup is too thick, mix in some hot water.
• Before the serving, discard the bay leaf, and sprinkle every serving with spoonful fresh, finely chopped dill.
