These proportions are given for 3-4 servings. I took double the amount. Instead of beef I got chicken. Because the meat in this soup is not that important. The focus is on Mac. That he assigned the property to improve brain activity. Let's get started. The meat is cut into pieces of approximately 3x3.

Dip them in flour.

And fry in vegetable (or olive) oil. Let just a bit browned.

Grind the onion and saute in the same oil where the meat was browned.

Carrots clean, RUB on a coarse grater and add to onion. Parboil all together for another 2 minutes.

Pumpkins are also three on a coarse grater.

Take the pot and buy. Consider the amount of already cooked foods plus need half a liter of boiling water. Poppy rinse in cold water and strain through cheesecloth, squeeze. In a pan place meat, sauteed onions and carrots, grated pumpkin, poppy seeds, dried parsley and potatoes. A couple of Bay leaves.

Forgot about the potatoes. Peel and cut arbitrarily.

Pour the whole thing in 1.5 liters of boiling water, add salt to taste and put on fire. Give to boil. After boiling, make the minimum fire as possible. The fire should be so weak that the surface of the water, even the bubbles did not appear. In the throes of soup on the heat for 1.5 hours. I don't know why, but the time necessary to maintain accurate to one minute!!! Turn off, take out the Bay leaf, add pepper to taste and fresh parsley. Allow to infuse for another half hour. Served with sour cream. You can make soup, if desired. Here's a soup of wisdom. [size=18][color=red]Eat health!! And always be in clear mind and memory!!![/color][/size]
