IRANIAN YOGURT SOUP - ASHE MAST
I originally posted this with the wrong name, so please ignore the bad review. It doesn't seem the reviewer tried making the soup and is posting based on mistaken name only. This recipe is passed down from my grandmother to my mother to me and it is fantastic! The challenge of making this soup is in keeping the yogurt from curdling. It needs to be stirred consistently while cooking. Enjoy!

- Add meat balls to the yogurt mixture and let simmer for 10 minutes.
- Add greens and beans and let simmer for 15 minutes. Can substitute fresh beans for canned.
- Stir often to avoid curdling.
- As a soup garnish, chop one or two cloves of garlic and saute in butter, add dried mint, about 1 tablespoon, and put a teaspoonful of this hot garlic sauce on each plate of yogurt soup when serving.
