Instructions
- For this soup no frying or baking is needed. Just add everything to boiling water, in steps.
- First soak overnight. Then cook in about 5 cups of water. In the 15 first minute skim off the foam on top. After 1½ hours follow the same step as with canned chickpeas starting with the potatoes
- Heat up 3 cups of water.
- Peel and cut the potato in smaller pieces than regular cubes, and add. This needs 15 minutes in total. Everything else needs a bit shorter and in between you'll have enough time to prepare every step.
- Cut the fennel into bitesize pieces and add.
- Cut the onion into small quarter rings and add.
- Add the chickpeas (canned).
- Wash the lemon well and zest. Then juice it. Add both, together with the paprika powder and black pepper.
- Tear up the dill and add, but leave some to garnish.
- Serve in two bowls with some dille on top. And optional extra slices of lemon and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Notes
- Since you use the zest make sure to buy organic lemons.
