    Soup recipe Slovak garlic (Cesnaková Polievka)

    A few months ago I was in Bratislava and had the opportunity to share with a group of travelers in the kitchen of the hostel where I stayed. A Slovak girl taught us how to make Slovak garlic soup . It is almost as easy as the other versions, the only variant is that it has cream and potatoes instead of bread. You can also put chopped cheese into cubes.

    • 4 cups of water or broth
    • 8 cloves of garlic
    • 2 large potatoes
    • ½ cup of cream
    • White cheese, chopped in cubes (optional)
    • 2 eggs
    • Salt
    • Pepper
    • Pepper
    • Salt
    • Pepper
    • li>
    • Vegetable oil

    Preparation:

    1. Chop the very small garlic and sauté it in a pan with oil to mid fire. When lightly browned, remove from heat and reserve.
    2. In a large saucepan over high heat, put the water and chopped potatoes into cubes to cook. When they are soft, they break easily, add the garlic with oil, salt, pepper, cream and beaten eggs.
    3. Leave to cook for 5 minutes over medium heat.
    4. If you decided to use cheese, put it right when you put out the fire.
    5. Serve hot.

    If you feel like it, you can change the water by vegetable broth in any of the three recipes to give more flavor to the garlic soup. And in the case of bread, it is not a bad idea to use homemade bread 🙂
