Purslane Soup

Instructions

  1. After cleaning the purslane, cut the leaves and branches separately into large pieces. Set aside a few leaves of purslane to use during serving.
  2. Put the onion, zucchini, and garlic in a pot and sauté for 4-5 minutes. Then add the vegetable stock, salt, and pepper, and boil until the vegetables are completely soft. 
  3. When the vegetables are cooked, first add the purslane branches, and after 2-3 minutes, add the leaves to the pot and stir quickly. When the soup reaches the boiling point again, remove it from the stove immediately to prevent the purslane from drying out. 
  4. In the meantime, put the bowl in which you will serve the soup in a bowl full of ice water. 
  5. Puree the soup in a food processor or blender. Add the balsamic vinegar during the process. Then strain it and put it into the bowl that you have cooled before. 
  6. Pour the yogurt you whisked with the help of a fork over the soup in the bowl. Serve by adding the purslane leaves and black cumin seeds. Enjoy your meal.
