For a long time I was curious about how they made Yemenite Soup. It was a soup that I often ordered at Israeli restaurants, but never in my wildest dreams thought to make it. The results were beyond my expectation. Firstly you will need a crockpot to make this soup. After searching many recipes online, I found that reviews stating that the longer the soup sat in the spices, the better the flavors would marry.
To make the Hawaji spice mix needed for the soup you will use a mortal and pestle to grind the following:
6.5 tbs of peppercorns
1/4 cup of cumin seed
2.5 tablespoons of coriander seeds
1.5 tablespoons of ground cardamon
minced and chopped garlic cloves
3.5 tablespoons of ground turmeric
I placed all the try spices in a jar and mixed them together before adding into the soup.
In the crockpot first sauté the onions, beef, and garlic. Next add in the dry spice mix and two tablespoons of tomato paste, cubed potatoes, and fill the pot with water. Cook on low overnight and then high for a few hours during the day. This dish is a little spicy and very flavorful.
