Dear friends! What do you dream of in extreme heat so mercilessly melting the asphalt and mercilessly burning the skin? About the coolness, of course! (every day standing in traffic jams, staying in stuffy apartments and offices ...)
Therefore, I want to offer you 2 cold soups, which I cook myself all summer. They (their other name is "chillies") are prepared very simply on ordinary chakka, which the hostesses in Uzbekistan love so much for a reason.
Such soups can be cooked at least every day. Enjoy and enjoy!

FRIDGE No. 1-Cold Uzbek soup "Katyk Otosh"
This soup will delight any gourmet. It is cooked on low-fat minced meat (mainly beef) with the addition of rice and onions.
This unusual cold soup is based on chakka. Chakka in different countries is called differently syuzma, katyk, yogurt. But its composition and benefits remain the same. For example, in Russia, this is yogurt or sour milk. Read how to cook chakka on my channel!
COOKING:
In a cauldron, first fry the onion, then add the minced meat to the onion, season with salt, pepper, fry until tender. Then pour water, add rice and when the mixture boils, cook for another 20-30 minutes over low heat.
Then take the resulting liquid with a ladle and mix it while still hot with the chakka, gradually stirring so that the chakka is not cooked.
Then pour all the liquid back into the cauldron to the minced meat, stir, add chopped basil or your favorite aromatic herbs and seasonings. Salt, cool and the soup is ready! Refrigerate for a few hours and serve cold.
FRIDGE No. 2-Cold Uzbek soup "Guzha"
Well, I think vegans will like this recipe for cold soup. For its preparation, you can use various cereals - wheat, rice, corn, chickpeas.
COOKING:
Rinse any cereal well, soak in cold water for several hours (boil so as not to make porridge), do not forget to salt and cool.
Then dilute the chakka with water, salt and pepper to taste, stir well. Adjust the density to your taste.
Pour the cereal with this mixture, add chopped fresh herbs: basil, dill, cilantro, green onions, stir and cool. Serve chilled with ice cubes. Bon Appetit!
