CROATIAN LAMB/MUTTON CHOWDER (AJNGEMAHTES)

Steps:

• Put cold water in a pot (appropriate large pot).
• Rind carrots, onion, parsley, celery and put all other ingredients into water. Boil and after it boils reduce heat and cook for 3 to 4 hours.
• In the meantime, cook green peas until almost done and put aside.
• Take another pot and heat olive oil and put flour in it and fry until it become slightly brown (brownish). Add just a little soup in it and mix hard until it become creamy; than add filtered soup.
• Cut carrots into small cubes; add green peas and some lamb meat; of course cut it into small pieces.
• Cook for more 30 minutes on low fire. You can also add noodles if you like.
• Before serving add sour cream and freshly minced dill and serve.

CROATIAN "BUZARA" SHRIMPS

DALMATIAN CLEAR FISH SOUP

Steps:

• In cold water, place the cleaned fish cut into chunks, add oil, tomato sliced in half, lemon juice, bay leaves and peppercorns. When the soup boils, add the vegetable stock cubes and cook for about 20 minutes.
• At the same time cook 1/2 cup of your prefered white rice. Once done strain and set aside.
• Remove cooked fish out of the soup then strain the soup. Clean the fish of bones and place pieces of fish back into the soup add olive oil and stir before serving.
• You can add the rice directly to the soup or place the rice in the bowl and add the soup over the top. I suggest the later because the soup alone you can freeze or refrigerate but the rice does not keep consistency and does sour.
• You can use frozen fish fillets too but fresh fish is best.
