Ingredients

Zest of 1 lemon, julienned cut (finely cut strips)

7 cups (1.75 L) chicken bouillon or stock

1/2 cup (80 g) basmati rice

1 cinnamon stick

Salt and pepper to taste

2 egg yolks

Juice of 1 lemon

Directions

In the microwave, put the lemon zest in a small container and cook for 30 seconds to extract the oil from the lemon.

In a saucepan, on medium heat, bring the bouillon or stock to a boil. Add the rice and bring back to a boil (skim top if necessary and discard).

Add the cinnamon stick and cook for 5 to 8 minutes until the rice is cooked. After 5 minutes of cooking add the lemon zest. Add salt and pepper.

In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks until a pale yellow colour. Add the lemon juice and whisk to incorporate. Add the bouillon or stock mixture and remove the cinnamon stick.

Pour the soup in a saucepan and continue simmering until the soup thickens but do not let it boil. Serve with pieces of toasts or crackers.

When ever I go to a Greek restaurant I always get the Greek Lemon Soup as a first course.
This is a great classic recipe.
