    STEP 1

    How to cook beef kharcho soup with rice? Prepare your ingredients. It is preferable to take round rice - it looks better in soup and does not get soggy. Water - bottled or filtered. You can replace the beef with other meat if you wish. Wash the vegetables and herbs and dry them with paper napkins.

    Then add tkemali, chopped nuts, chopped garlic, adjika, suneli hops and ground black pepper to the soup. Taste the soup and add salt if necessary. Stir, bring to a boil and cook for a couple more minutes. You don’t need to add adjika at all if your tkemali is already spicy. My tkemali was practically not spicy, so I added adjika.
