Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to cook trout fish soup with rice? Prepare your ingredients. Take filtered or bottled water. You donʼt have to use the whole trout, just its head and tails. True, I also add fillet for taste. If necessary, defrost the fish in advance. Wash the vegetables and dry with napkins. Peel the onions.

Step 2

Step 2
Wash the fish, gut it, if necessary, wash it again. Pour water into a saucepan of suitable size, place the trout head and a whole peeled onion in it. Place the pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and simmer on low for about 30 minutes. Skim off the foam. Calculate the exact time based on your stove.

Step 3

Step 3
Peel the carrots. Cut the carrots into strips.

Step 4

Peel the potatoes. Cut the tubers into large cubes. In general, if you want your soup to have a more classic look, cut the vegetables larger than you usually cut them for soup.

Clean the trout fillet from skin and bones. Cut the fish into small pieces. You can skip this stage — the soup will be tasty and aromatic and only on some heads.

Add uncooked rice, salt and pepper to the pan. Stir. Cook the fish soup until the rice is ready, for me it takes about 10 minutes. Instead of rice, you can put any other cereal (or even small pasta). Or you can cook without cereal — at your discretion.
