Chef's Notes


Develop the flavours – Allow the flavours to deepen over time and serve up over the next few days after cooking.
Using Dried Oregano? Freshen It Up First – Heat through in a dry frying pan for a few minutes over a medium heat (but don’t allow it to burn). You’ll smell the difference almost immediately, as your stale dried herbs come to life with a little heat and release their pent up fragrance.
Leftovers? – Serve the next day with rice.
Thicken the soup – While this soup is meant to be quite watery, you can thicken by simmering for a further 30 minutes – 1 hour with the lid off.
Side ideas – Crusty warm bread or garlic bread is a fantastic addition. You can also have with salty foods – such as anchovies or olives.
Add cheese – sprinkle freshly shaved Parmesan over the top before serving for extra bite.

Thank you so much for the recipe. I had this delightful dish in Kosovo and had no idea how easy it was to make. This is a true Albanian comfort food for a cold night!
