Ingredients
- 180 grams (1 cup) Sour Trahana
- 250 grams (8.8 ounce) Greek Sausage or Italian
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion minced
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1250 ml (5 cups) hot water or stock
- OPTIONAL: hot red pepper or pepper flakes to serve with
Instructions
- Cut the sausage into small bite-sized pieces.
- Heat olive oil in a medium-sized cooking pot.
- Add the sausage and cook for about 2 minutes stirring until nicely browned.
- Take the pot off the heat and transfer the sausage to a plate with a slotted spoon. Scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to remove any brown or burned bits.
- Return the pot to the heat.
- Saute onion over medium-low heat and once softened add the garlic.
- Add tomato paste and cook for a minute while stirring.
- Pour in the water or stock and the dried oregano.
- Add the Trahana once the soup starts to bubble.
- Simmer for 10 minutes. Stir often so it won't stick to the bottom.
- Return the sausage to the pot. Simmer for another 5 to 10 minutes stirring often until Trahana is tender and soup thickened.
- Serve with freshly ground pepper on top, hot red pepper, or hot red pepper flakes.
