So, let's start making the soup. Step by step:

First you need to fill the pan with a coldwater, put chilled (not frozen) chicken into it and put it on the fire. When the water begins to boil, you need to remove the foam until it finishes forming and the broth becomes transparent. If you missed this moment, it does not matter, you can lower the head of onions and a small slice of carrots in a saucepan, they will remove the formed clots. We leave the broth to boil, and we proceed to the vegetable portion of the soup. Do not forget to add salt, black, fragrant pepper to give the broth a special spicy flavor.

We chop the onion into small pieces.

Wash and peel carrots rub on a grater of medium size.

Heat the frying pan, add a little vegetable oil and fry the onion until it turns golden.

Then we spread the carrots to the onions, stir. This duo should languish under the lid for about 5 minutes.

Potatoes must be cleaned, and then cut into cubes about 1 cm.

Buckwheat groats should be washed, then fried in a pan without adding vegetable oil for a few minutes, so it will fill the soup with its pleasant smell.

We remove the chicken from the broth, the meat is separated from the bones, then cut into small pieces and returned to the pan.

We put all the previously prepared ingredients into the pan, add the bay leaf. We cook for another 10-15 minutes. After the soup is ready, let it brew under the lid for a few more minutes.

Before serving this elegant yet simplein preparation of the dish on the table, it can be decorated with finely chopped greens (dill, parsley), or you can put small sprigs of dill and parsley leaves. Such decoration can be made by a child. Enjoy your meal!
