Good afternoon
Everyone has favorite dishes that you return to again and again, and for us this kind of dish is duck in cognac from Stalik Khankishiev.
The thing is simply divine, but after everything is eaten, fingers are licked and the grill is cleaned of aromatic duck fat, what remains is the so-called “duck frame”, where there is quite a lot of meat and one cannot raise one’s hand to throw away this wealth.
In general, God himself ordered the soup to be cooked, but what kind of soup is the question. Duck broth not only has a bright taste and smell, it is also very fatty, and here rice should help us with its property of drawing fat out of anything. But I didn’t want to make just rice soup, and according to the valuable advice of the older generation, pickle soup was cooked.
I once touched on the topic of this super soup, but it was a complicated version. Today it will be much easier, which, however, will not detract from the dignity of the result.

Ingredients:

- Bones and offal from one duck
- Potatoes, 250 gr.
- Pickled cucumbers, 3-4 pcs.
- Rice, 150 gr.
- Onion, 100 gr.
- Carrots 1-2 pcs.
- Lavrushka
- Black peppercorns
- Salt
- Vegetable oil
We cut the duck remains into smaller pieces, rinse them, fill them with two liters of cold water and put them on high heat:

After boiling, remove the foam, reduce the heat, cover with a lid and leave to cook for an hour.
Meanwhile, chop the onion and three carrots. There must be harmony in everything):

Fry over high heat with a little oil for three minutes:

Peel the cucumbers and cut them into cubes:

Peel and cut the potatoes:

The broth is cooked and it is advisable to strain it through several layers of gauze.
We take out the bones, separate the meat and chop a little:

Return the meat to the broth, add potatoes and rice. Cook for ten minutes. After this, add carrots and onions, cucumbers, bay leaves and peppers. Let's taste and add salt. Let it cook for another fifteen minutes.

After this time, turn off the heat and let our pickle rest for about ten minutes. At this time, we set the table and invite everyone to dinner.

Bon appetit!
