: How to prepare
First, soak the beans the night before and change the water several times.
Half an hour before starting to cook, we soak the barley.
Fry the onion, and when it becomes light, add the garlic, then add the paste, when it turns pale, add turmeric, then add the stock.When it boils, add barley, beans and chicken. Do not leave the pot open. Reduce the flame until the food is cooked.

At the end of cooking, add lemon juice, salt and pepper and turn off the flame.
(You can also use pomegranate paste or plum paste or orange juice as flavoring. In general, it is better to use a sour taste in this soup.)
