Cook for 12 minutes. • At the end of 12 minutes, turn off the heat and remove the pressure of the pot and open the lid. • If you don’t have a pressure cooker, boiling the chicken on medium heat for 20 minutes with the lid on would do great as well. • Take out the chickens and shred them into strands by using two forks. It is nice to have some chunks as well. • Melt the butter and add the chicken shreds back to pot and crisp them nicely. • Add the garlic puree and orzo and continue to sauté until orzo gets slightly brown. • Add the tomato paste and sauté for a minute. • Pour the chicken stock and add the tomato puree to have nice red colour.

Bon a petit! Cypriot Tarhana 3 kg sour yogurt 1 L of milk, use fresh milk if you can find 1 kg split or crushed wheat* 8 cloves of garlic, halved 1 cup boiled chickpeas 1 tablespoon of salt • Depending on your preference, sour your homemade yoghurt or village yoghurt you bought on the counter for 1 whole day. • Then, to get rid of the lumps, put it in a pot and stir with a wooden spoon. • Place the pot on the cooker and when it starts to boil, stir it again with the wooden spoon. When it starts to bubble up, add the yarmas slowly and the garlic dividing them in two. Then, add the milk - still slowly - and stir the mixture till it reaches the consistency of sloppy dough. Add in the chickpeas • When this cools down, it should have the consistency of dough. Take 2 big handfuls each, put them in fridge bags and place them in the deep freeze. Cooking the tarhana 400 g tarhana, 1 pack 1 L hot water 2 tablespoons butter ½ bar halloumi, diced • Empty a packet of tarhana into a pot with 1 L boiling water in it and cook gently on low heat till the tarhana is tender. • Then, increase the heat and cook for 35-40 minutes the tarhana should have a thick consistency. • Meanwhile, melt the butter and add the haloumi to fry nicely. Do not turn the haloumi until it nicely sealed. Otherwise, it can lose it is consistency. • When haloumi get crispy and brown it is ready. • Add this as you are about the serve so that the butter and halloumi can sizzle and your soup will be a treat for the eye, nose and ear! * Tarhana is best done with yarma. However, if you cannot find it and use whole wheat,, soak the wheat in water a day before cooking. The Next day, after 20 minutes of scalding, put them through food processor. According to its consistency, when preparing the meal you may have to use less milk.

It would be great for schools to have soup available everyday for every child. More nutritious than a frozen pizza or "nuggets". Healthier children are less grumpy. So parents and teachers would be happy, too. ;)

For many decades we in USA have been told that French cuisine is the pinnacle, but that is because the chefs have a reputation for perfection that is easy for marketing. I went to a nice Turkish restaurant in Chicago and had a memorable meal that made me realize that food from a huge region of the world has been hidden from us -- probably for political reasons. Your channel is an excellent survey of Turkish cuisine, and 41k views in the first week is too low. Everyone should try Turkish food!

Hi Refika, I love your channel. My mother was half Turkish, Half German from Detroit, Michigan. But my Turkish grandfather died when I was a small child. Most of my Turkish culture was related to food. But since there are no Turkish restaurants we often ate at Greek restaurants, and my mom made Greek dishes that are common for Turks too. Moussaka, dolmas, chicken and pilaf, baklava, spanakopita, and others. But your channel is opening my experience to more TURKISH food culture, and I love it. Thank you! Thanks you! Thank you! Every one of your recipes I've made has been fantastic.

Soup is probably the most nutritious, healthy way to eat not just vegetables, but most ingredients. I am absolutely thrilled to see recommendations that it be used to ensure children from all walks of life get sufficient nutrition. This channel is fantastic and should have far more followers than it does.

When watching your channel I've often noticed the similarities between Turkish and Portuguese cuisine, but I never thought I'd find people who love soup as much as we do! Growing up, you wouldn't be allowed to go to the main course if you didn't eat your soup first, and soup is actually always available in every single public canteen in the whole country, and in many private / commercial canteeens too. Also, we even use the same kind of pasta for the chicken soup, the orzo, which is called "pevide" here (we also make chicken soup with rice instead of pasta and it's also delicious). Loved the video, as always!

Hi Refika, I am from India. You don’t know how you saved me. My son is a soup lover and I was fed up of making clear soups, sweet corn soups and Tomato soups for him. Turkish çorbalar are gems in a treasure. çorba tarifleri için çok teşekkürler. Ellerinize sağlık.

From some where in America. I have been making home made soups for breakfast since I am gluten intolerant. It warms the body up and satisfies the appetite beautifully. I spend one day a week making batches and freeze in portion sizes according to the number of people who will be eating. The night before I set a soup out to defrost and breakfast only needs to be warmed up. Easy ! I thank you for your ideas!

Whenever I feel restless, or a little down in spirit…I always make soup! Never with a recipe, just using my cravings and cooking techniques to enhance flavour. Your video embraces everything I feel about creating soup🥰 You gave me new ideas and have lit my passion for soup-making❣️Thank-you Refika. Can’t wait to try these out🥰

Glad to come across some turkish channel sharing their cuisine in English! Thank you for sharing the recipes in text as well! In Pakistan, chicken corn soup is always a hit, though people are now developing a taste for lentil and mushroom cream soups as well as for Thai soups. BTW, Great to see so many soup lovers around here❣

Refika, WOW, I’m BLOWN away. I’ve always been a huge Turkish food fan, living in a place with No TURKISH cafes or restaurants . Thank you thank you, for sharing these amazing tips combining 2 of my favourite things, Turkish food and soups. And you have given us the recipes. Bless you Woman, you ROCK! I love your taste, it’s just like mine, I’m now looking forward to more of your videos.🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕💕💕🇦🇺

Adore how you get right to the essential techniques and ingredients, beautiful job, great teaching style!

I have recently discovered you and have been watching your vlog from Toronto, Canada, but I was born in Budapest and I JUST LOVE YOUR style of cooking. It should be fun to create new dishes and watching your videos, I now got a second wind, and using your basic recipes, I now truly enjoy creating a mixture of turkish/hungarian cuisine for friends. ( We do after all have a 150 years of history together).

I really appreciate the time you guys take to explain and write every recipe. Thanks so much

I grew up with homemade soup almost every day of the year in Scotland and I do still love making and eating soup, though not quite as often as my mum made it. I'm definitely going to try out some of these soups, I'm all for adding more delicious soups to my repertoire! I made your pumpkin dessert and the coffee syrup last week and I already bought more pumpkin to do it again. Soooo good, thank you Refika!

I don’t have words to describe the delight you brought to my 1/8 Turkish roots! My beloved grandfather whose mother was Turkish definitely left serious marks in my taste searches around Eastern Europe and now North America, God rest his soul! I had NO idea why I was SO obsessed with soup & sadly couldn’t see it in my peers, too (that, AND feta cheese pies!) I love you & your channel - long live! ;)

In Mexico we have different ways to make soups, tortilla soup is very famous but there are a lot more options in our cuisine. I loved your ideas and can’t wait to visit Türkiye to be able to taste all beautiful food from your amazing country. çok teşekkürler güzellik

Soups are food for the soul. I associated soups with hospitals or sickness before but having lived in Europe for +25 years and tasted some amazing soups, I agree with you Refika, they are good for all times and should definitely go on school menus. Merci beaucoup for these delicious recipes that I'm going to try out real soon. Love from Paris.

I’m Turkish and I learned so much from this video. Thank you! ❤

This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for!!! I've several personal reasons why soup is #1 on my list for any meal... YUM! TIRING of ALL MY OLD STANDBY recipes, these new soups, with the flavorful bases are just the ticket! I, for one, have already started a new grocery list! Hello from the USA and Thank YOU for helping me kick my bland diet to the curb! I can't wait to watch and try more recipes coming out of your kitchen... AGAIN.... Thank YOU for sharing your expertise!!!!

For the cream soups, if you will blend it then forget the cream and add cashews to the hot liquid. It will come out creamy and smooth with no dairy

Refika is so creative and generous with her cooking. I love watching her videos because I always learn so much.❤

You are the best at representing Turkey, not only at cooking, but also as a culture 👌

I absolutely LOVE your idea as far as incorporating this in the school system, or even to make an amazing soup restaurant! Great recipes!

Hey Refika, this video has all the key vocabulary that I will teach in the Food & Healthy Eating unit to my 7th Grade students in China! Thank you yet again for always helping me in kitchen and now with my lesson content! Lots of love to the team ❤.

Hello! I made ezogelin today (using brown rice instead of bulgur, and fresh mint, brightened with a squeeze of lemon) as a side for dinner. We enjoyed it, my husband had seconds and I had thirds. Comforting, filling, and delicious, thank you for the ideas!

I love how you gave us the full recipe below! Thank you! They all look wonderful!

Wow! So knowledgeable and easy on the eyes. What a valuable human. The Mark Bittman of Turkey for sure!

Love this new format! It,s a great way to recycle your old recipes while giving us more ideas to improvise or better plan our meals. Following recipes is a bit overwhelming but once we grasp the basics, we can go by ourselves, inspired by your channel. Keep going! And many thanks!

I was raised in KY and love black-eyed peas. Most of the people I know in California have never heard of them. And then, from the other side of the planet, Refika mentions black-eyed peas! I love it!

I just made the Lentil Soup and it is fantastic! I had a bag of lentils in my store cupboard that I bought ages ago to try and be healthy but didn't have a clue what to do with them. Now I do know and I will be buying lentils a lot more often.

Great, thank you for giving us all these soup possibilities. Your culinary talents are off the charts! Keep on keeping on.

Yum! As we move into fall, soups are calling my name. Soups, stews, chili are fall/winter staples.

Thank you. I know nothing about Turkish food, but I learned something from you today. These soups sound interesting. I like how some soups seem to exist across all countries and others are distinct to their own lands. I am glad to know something from your country.

Soups are great one-dish meals, and fantastic comfort foods. Perfect in any season... with a nice wholesome salad, freshly baked bread, and a glass of wine.💕

In Cyprus we like adding yiouvarlakia to the yogurt soup. These are balls of minced meat, onion and rice, Also, my grandmother, who was from Turkey, made a pastry and filled them minced meat. Delicious!

Soups are truly food for the soul. Whenever I miss my mum and granny (both are no longer with us 💔) I make chicken soup. Always use fine angel hair noodles (fide), and as my grandmother used to put quartered whole lemon in the broth to cook with the chicken and root vegitables for truly zesty lemony flavour. Mix yogurt , little flour and egg to enrich the soup and add sour brineniness that adds to the complexity of the dish, and it is traditional. And lastly, we use Savory (Chybritca). You can also add Lovage (Divisil) and plenty of fresh Parsley (Magdanoz)...and be generous with it. Before freezers and all year round available fresh herbs, my mum and granny used to preserve green herbs such as parsley, dill, mint and divisil in salt and olive oil as these herbs loose their aromatics when dried. Da vi e sladko (Bon apetite) 😊

Thank you for this video! I’m cooking for a family member who can only eat liquid foods. This will help me make much more interesting things for her. I love Turkish food, and miss visiting Turkey. Your videos bring a bit of Turkey to my own kitchen.

JazakAllah, I was looking for different recipes of soups , my luck 😊I came across yours and I can’t be more grateful . My mom has 5 extraction in one go in the coming week and she will be needing soft food . Your soups have just saved me from a lot of stress and anxiety. Thank you , thank you Thank you. ❤ love from USA♥️Pakistan

What a delightful video, loved watching this. I am of Polish background and have a wonderful book of Polish soups by Barbara Kafka but these were all so unique and interesting flavor combinations I had not considered! And puree soup is something I have never tried to make. Love this, and love the idea of incorporating more soups especially for the little ones

you're so inspiring!!!!Thank you for making it so easy covering every basis of soup

These soups will certainly help many through a long winter. Thanks for sharing all of these varieties. My mind is already spinning with variations!! Love to you and to your crew, Refika. Be well and stay safe!!!

Many of these we have in Serbia. Not that much mediteranean. But it is interesting that SUPA is in Serbian a clear soup, and ČORBA is always thick. We make clear chicken soup, and when we want chicken like this, we make chicken paprikaš. It is really similar go this čorba you made. Lentils and beans is a staple food. Bean çorba is still the most favourite meal in Serbia. Thanks for this lovely video and ideas for new meals. And Tarana is something absolutely different in Serbia. It is a type of pasta. You great the egg-dough on the grater and leave it to dry in the sun and put it in soups.

I'm Mexican-American from the United States, so love, love that you are educating me with your channel!! Especially with the soups, love soup!!!

Refika! You forgot #5, and maybe the most important one! 5. Use the leftovers so you don't waste food. Soups are a great way to use those leftovers in the fridge instead of tossing them in the garbage or compost. Especially in the soups you blend. I make a lot of congee based soups; congee is a great base for almost anything else. Thanks for the video!

Having soup on hand is the one way I am SURE to eat well, especially when tired. I loved your earlier Lentil Soup versions, and now I have many more soups to try, Thank you, Refika and team!

I came across this while I was cooking soup-- my computer is watching me. I love how you teach techniques and not a strict recipe-- it's how I love to cook and I didn't know about the curdled yoghurt one, I love it-- thank you!!

As a confirmed soupaholic I'm looking forward to trying these recipes! Thanks Refika!

I loved every idea for making soups. Life is better with warm, thick, creamy tasty soups. Thank you!

You are amazing! My dream was to visit Turkey to eat street food. Now, I want to eat from your kitchen. I saved this video, so I can make soup thiswnter. Thank you.

Thank you for the wonderful gift. When culture shows it’s best. I am from Brazil and live in New York. I’ve been living here for 32 years and travel a lot. I wish I could have the pleasure of meeting you one day.

I love your attitude and energy!

I very much enjoy your passion when explaining how great soups are. Thank you for the information to bring more flavor and options for soups...they feel like a warm hug in the winter.

Thank you for expanding my soup repertoire! Your soup idea is fantastic, I would be a daily patron

Lentil soup is my soul food. I sometimes add a potato and a carrot to the base and always home made croutons. Yummy! :)

You should be the ambassador for Turkish food. How much knowledge does she have. mashaAllah.

Lovely! Now I will definitely expand my soup repertoire beyond pumpkin and mixed vegetables 🍲😋

I tried ezogelin when you first showed it on the channel and it's become one of our favorites! So simple, yet so yummy!

everytime i see your videos i have the feeling i need to jump on a plane, visit your and your crew and make a cooking course with you. i just love your channel and all the lovely things you cook!!!

I love making soups so I was thrilled to learn incorporating Turkish soup techniques that I can incorporate into the ones that I make.

Thank u for these soup tips. I love soups. This video made me miss my grandmother since she use to make the lentil soup for me.

Your soups are an excellent way to get veggies into those people that don't like vegetables.

In Czechia, all school canteens serve soup before the main course. What I really appreciated was that when you sometimes forgot to order food in advance (you would mark it in the system and choose from two options so they could prepare the right amount of food and not waste it), they would still give us the soup for free. This saved me on many days

Great, simple, do-able ideas from ingredients most kitchens have on hand. All sound delicious!

Loved this vid. As a soup lover I definitely appreciated all the different ideas. I usually make one soup a week during the winter so i will be using many of these techniques

Ohhh Refika, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Turkish lentil soup & would have it all the time on my trips to Istanbul! I am going to make it with veg broth as I am vegetarian. Thank you!!!! Love this video with the variations. U r the best!!!!🙏

This is my first exposure to a video from Turkey, and I rather enjoyed it. Thank you for this. I want to try some of your soups. Blessings from USA.

I must be Turkish! All of this sounds and looks wonderful!

you’re one of my cooking idols!! hi, refika 💘

Love the soups. Due to long Covid, we have been only having homemade broth. I can do some of these using the broth. Thank you, I always love that what you do comes from the heart. Best wishes Marie xo

You saved the best for last! Haloumi in butter! Tastes of heaven in the kitchen! God bless you!

Glad you have highlighted “browning” certain foods….it gives so much added flavor to anything being made.

Soup would be my choice if I could only have one dish for the rest of my years. Thank you Refika. Turkish soup is new to my cuisine :-) Loved the pureed vegetables and of course, the cream.

Refrika I made your lentil soup yesterday and I made the butter and paprika! Delicious! I’ve always loved lentil soup and I’m Sicilian we also roast cauliflower and add it right on top of the soup. It’s delicious! Soup is my comfort food and I live in the Midwest and our windchills are -35 below so I’ll be eating more of my soup. ❤️

Just found your channel today. LOVE soup in the fall and winter-quick, easy, nourishing, tasty way to get in your veggies and round out any meal. . . And they store easily. Can’t wait to test out some of these recipes and dig further into you other videos.

I really enjoyed this video, as soups and sandwiches are two of my favorite foods. I worked in a great little hole in the wall deli when I was a teenager from 16-18yrs old, and the owner made all of the soups from scratch and they were all delicious. I really enjoyed these Turkish soup recipes because they are so unusual and use such different techniques from most of the soup recipes that I know, and they all look delicious. I am also a big fan of anything that tastes sour, so I am sure I would love these unusual (at least to an American) and delicious looking Turkish soups.

Just before I turned this on I was thinking about lentil soup. Wonderful options!

Refika, I love your shows! Your love for food so clearly shines through. Hope to visit Turkey someday. Inshallah!

As a Texan we don’t each that much soup but you gave me some wonderful ideas on making it! Thank you so much! These ideas sound delicious!

I LOVE making different flavoured soups. I have a saying at home that a good soup is ‘a meal in itself’ - it can be filling, certainly nutritious, cheap to make, and with home made crusty bread its a winner every time in my home. I also make pasties - from typical Cornish pasties, to experimenting with different fillings. A thermos of home made soup and a couple of pasties wrapped up and one is ready for any journey. This video has helped me with a lot more ideas! Thank you for sharing x

So happy with this video, my soup usually end up tasting the same. These new ideas will diversify my cooking with new taste and new ingredients. Thanks for sharing specifically right now, as the temperature is getting colder!

Soooo happy to see you Refika :) great content as always!!! ❤

Thank you for sharing your knowledge refika! I visited turkey in 2016 and it is my favourite culture, country, cuisine so far. Hope things get better soon. Love from India 🇮🇳

You opened my eyes to new possibilities. I love your energy.

Thank you! I love soups, always have one or 2 choices of leftover soups in my fridge. So good for quick lunch, snack, or meal. Currently, navy bean soup, fish chowder (creamy version) and asparagus soup are ready to be reheated. Red lentil soup is one of my top choices, just made some last week. Split pea and either tortilla or hot n sour are waiting to be made next week. I love Turkish and Mediterranean cuisine! Cheers from Texas, near Dallas! Subscribed. I'm making your chicken soup, definitely, next week, split pea can wait. ;-)

Excellent 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a great day everyone 🌻

Great video because you go to the essentials of the meal without explaining what most of us know anyway. I am a great fan of Greek and Turkish meals. They are balanced, healthy and easy to make. I will cook some more soups this winter thanks to you.

Thank you! I make soup for lunch most days in winter and I loved the overview of techniques/styles that will help me use what I have to customize.

Wow Refika! I love every single one of your soup! Each is different and very inviting. I’ve not come across that many soup ideas on here and yours is mind blowing! I’m definitely gonna try making them. Thank you, again, for yet another fantastic presentation!

Reminds me of a favourite family restaurant here in New Zealand - Souplantaion. It served a buffet of multiple soups!

Thank you! Love your energy 🎉

Such inspiration! Thank you.

I sometimes add frozen manti (turkish dumplings) and pre-cooked chickpeas in yogurt soup. It becomes Mantili Yogurt Corbasi.

I enjoyed my time with you. I learned a lot and intend to look into some of the types of soups I am not familiar with. The last one you described sounds fantastic! I have an adult (35 year old ) daughter who loves lentils too and she makes lentil soup often and always offers to share some with us. I always feel so loved when she does this. She also frequently makes chicken and pasta soup as well as split pea. She is such a wonderful cook and so generous and loving. I felt this same kind of love and generosity from you sharing your knowledge and culture with me. I thank you. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to expanding my repertoire as well as techniques. A quick look down your list of postings revealed an extremely tempting array of dishes and I always love learning more things and more ways to cook. I look forward to spending time with you again. Blessings to you and your family my new friend. Sending love from Southern California USA. 🙏🏼♥️Kelly

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK!! GREAT WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS!

I love your videos. I remember watching your videos years ago and honestly, you encouraged me to move to Turkey. I’m in love with the way of life. I am and I know it’s crazy.

So many good techniques. I love them all. I will try them at home. I then to throw away a lot of vegetables because I am never sure about what to do with them. I will definitely introduce this to my family and see how it goes. Will be great for dinners now had it is becoming so cold 🥶

Hello from southern Mexico 🇲🇽! Wow! And I thought we had all soups possible 😄simply amazing! ❤ I’ll try yogurt soup first since is a way different taste I’m very keen on trying! Thank you Rafika!

Love Refika’s Kitchen!

I love soups; I'm in the US, moved to FL for a while where it was too hot to really enjoy soup. Now I moved more north where winters are snowy and I love it, and late autumn-early spring I love to keep soup warm in the crock pot and the family dips into it all day for lunch/dinner when coming in or out or when getting hungry. Thanks for this awesome video, I am inspired.
