How to cook nettle soup. Nettle soup with boiled eggs

I suggest you cook a hearty and healthy soup with nettle, rice and egg.

Nettle should be taken young, with juicy stems and leaves. If you can pick nettles in your area - that's great! But if this is not possible, you can pick up nettles when traveling out of town, it can be perfectly stored in freezer, washing and cutting.

So, let's cook everything for soup with nettle, rice and egg necessary ingredients. I had chicken broth ready - with onions and carrots. From the greenery, I cut a young onion and took the leaves Chinese garlic. You can choose greens according to your taste.

Cut the potatoes into small pieces.

Add rice and potatoes to a saucepan with broth, cook over medium heat. In the meantime, let's take care of the nettles. First you need to pour boiling water over it so that it does not burn your hands. After - rinse in cold water and cut.

After 15 minutes, add nettles to the pan, bring to a boil. At this time, beat the egg with a fork. I cooked the broth on the bones - there is not much meat, but the soup turns out to be very rich.

Add chicken meat to our soup and pour in a beaten egg in a thin stream, stirring vigorously so that the egg "flakes" are thin.

It remains only to cut the greens.

We can serve on the table and invite loved ones to treat themselves excellent soup with nettle, rice and egg.

It's great that the abundant summer is generous in the harvest of not only garden, but also wild-growing edible greens. Ramson, dandelions, gout, lungwort, nettle - this vitamin "pasture" is a sin not to use in the everyday cuisine of residents of large cities. And what a delicious nettle soup with an egg!

A few days ago I gave you, dear readers, a few simple recipes. Today we will continue to talk about what else can be prepared from the "burning" beauty. We will look at how to cook soup from young fresh nettles with an egg.

Irina Rybchanskaya, well-known to all of you, the leading heading, brought us her homemade recipes for nettle soup with an egg today. Further, the story will be led by Irina.

Greetings, dear readers of Irina Zaitseva's blog! I live in a private house, away from the roads. Therefore, I can have dishes from fresh young nettles on the table all summer long. We often mow the lawn near the house. It grows along the edges of the meadow. As a result of mowing, it is always renewed - new tender shoots grow in place of coarse old plants. Here we are preparing them in different ways.

Omelet, salad, pie, focaccia-type tortillas, homemade noodles, all kinds of salads- this is only a part of those dishes that I cook from nettles. And we eat soup with nettle and egg during the season at least once a week.

There are many recipes for nettle soups. Let's start with the simplest, and then move on to some interesting little-known variations.

The easiest recipe. Nettle soup turns out to be completely dietary - there is no “frying” in it, which means there is no fat. It can well be afforded by "losing weight" ladies, if potatoes are excluded from the composition of the products. The calorie content of such a soup is low - about 40 kcal per 100 g.

Ingredients

• A large bunch of fresh young nettles (about 200 g);
• 800 ml of water, chicken or meat broth;
• two medium-sized potatoes;
• one egg;
• small bay leaf;
• ground black pepper;
• salt.

How to cook

• Nettles should first be rinsed in running water, and then blanched for a couple of minutes in boiling water, cooled in cold water, chopped with a knife.
• Wash the egg with a brush with neutral soap, dip in cold water, heat up to 100°C. Close the container with a lid, turn off the heat, leave for ten minutes.
• Take the egg out of hot water, immediately place it in ice water for a quarter of an hour, peel it from the shell.
• Remove the skin from a thoroughly washed potato, chop into cubes.
• Boil the liquid, send the potatoes into it, continue cooking.
• As soon as the potatoes reach almost fully prepared, add blanched nettles to the container. Salt, put "lavrushka", black pepper. Cook on a low burner flame for about 90 seconds.
• When serving, serve nettle soup with an egg cut in half. Serve sour cream separately - let lovers put it on the plates themselves.

My remarks

If you do not have enough “sourness” in the soup, then season it with lemon juice.

My grandmother always used the poached egg version of the soup. She said that it was pure pampering and a waste of wood to boil eggs separately from soup.

Peel clean potatoes, wash again, cut into small pieces.

In the broth or water heated to a boil, send potatoes, toasted vegetables, salt a little, add spices. Cook until potatoes and roots are almost done.

Break the egg into a small ladle, place in a container with potatoes and roots, carefully pour it out, add nettles. Pour the rest of the protein over the surface with threads.

Cook for 60 seconds on a low flame. When serving, cut open the egg so that the yolk flows out a little. Serve with greens. Pour sour cream into a gravy boat so that each eater, if desired, can add it to his plate.

Nettle for soup is good young, no more than 15 cm in height. It still has soft and tender stems, small, sometimes unblown leaves. It is necessary to collect it in protective gloves, carefully cutting off with scissors. Then, also with gloves, sort out, remove all debris and grass.

Nettle soup with egg

We will need:

• nettle - a large bunch (200-300 gr)
• potatoes - 3 pcs.
• onion - 1 pc.
• vegetable oil -3-4 tbsp. spoons
• boiled egg - 2 pcs.
• sour cream - for serving
• fresh greens, green onion- to submit
• salt, pepper - to taste

Cooking:

1. After the nettles have been collected and cleaned, they must be thoroughly washed under running water. After winter, the ground is still dry, and the leaves on the nettle are embossed and collect dust well. Therefore, it must be washed very carefully.

2. Cut the onion into small cubes.

3. In a frying pan or thick-walled saucepan, heat vegetable oil and fry the onion in it. Vegetable oil can be replaced with butter, it will also be very tasty.

4. Fry the onion over medium heat until golden color, then pour half a glass of boiling water. At first, the onion will be steamed, and when the water boils away, it will fry a little more in oil and become transparent. When the soup is cooked, the onion will be almost invisible, and certainly will not squeak on the teeth.

5. Cut the potatoes into strips.

6. When the onion is fried, add 1.7 - 2 liters of boiling water, if the volume of the pan allows. Or, transfer the fried onions to a saucepan of a suitable volume and pour water there. Add potatoes. After it boils, salt to taste. Salt will need about a little more than half a tablespoon.

7. While the potatoes are cooking, and it will cook for about 15 minutes, let's take care of the nettles. It is necessary to boil more water and pour it over the plants for 20 seconds, gently mixing the contents with a spoon. Drain the water right there. Let the nettle cool down.

8. Then cut it with a thickness of no more than 1 cm. Now the nettle is no longer dangerous for the hands. You can safely take it and cut it without gloves.

9. When the potatoes are fully cooked, add the nettles to the pan. Pepper to taste. After it boils, cook for 5 minutes. Close the lid and let it brew for 5-10 minutes.

10. During this time, peel the eggs and cut them into cubes. I used an egg cutter and the cubes turned out small and neat. Or you can just cut the egg into two halves, and put one or two parts into the soup. Chop green onions and parsley.

11. Pour the soup into a bowl, put the chopped egg and herbs on top. I put half an egg and a handful of greens on a bowl of soup. Serve with sour cream.

Greens fresh soups It is best to cook at one time and eat them immediately. This amount of ingredients is given for approximately 5 servings. If you require fewer servings, reduce the amount of water and ingredients.

Fresh nettle soup is good both hot and cold. Therefore, if it is not heated additionally, then it can be cooked with an additive.

The nuances of cooking soup from fresh nettles:

• If sorrel also grows on your site, then it can also be added to the soup. The recipe is exactly the same. We cut the sorrel and 5 minutes before it is ready, send it to the pan along with steamed nettles.
• If you like mashed soups, then place the cooked soup in a blender, grind to a puree state. Then pour it back into the pan, add a tablespoon of butter and bring to a boil. Serve with sour cream.

• If you add half a glass of country cream to this puree soup, you get delicious cream soup. You need to add cream after you have crushed the contents in a blender. Now pour everything back into the saucepan, add the cream and bring to a boil. You don't need to boil.
• In the summer, when we collect the first crop of spinach, we add it. Let's drink our soup great content vitamins and microelements. In the southern regions, wild garlic is added.
• Nettle soups can also be boiled in meat or chicken broths. The technology is the same as in the main recipe, only instead of water we use pre-prepared broth. On such broths, cabbage soup from nettles is very tasty. In addition to these ingredients, carrots are also introduced into them.

I think that the basic principle of making nettle soup is clear to everyone. And now you can easily cook any soup from it, such as you want. The main thing is to do everything in a good mood!

Bon appetit!
