Non Vegetarian Dishes

Soups:

If you want broth, boil 4 chicken thighs and legs in a large skillet of water with a piece of

crushed ginger, two finely cut onions and 5 to 7 cloves of crushed garlic for about 45

minutes. Once the water boils turn the heat to medium. Strain the liquid and store in the

freezer.  Instead of chicken, you can use lean veal or mutton. Once you have the base,

half your work is done. You can shred the chicken into the soup and freeze some of the 

broth in the freezer. Add the vegetables you like to this broth and some whole grain pasta if

you wish and you have a good sumptuous soup.
