Critical Success Points

  • Soak beans overnight and drain before cooking
  • Sauté onion until lightly golden before adding spices
  • Fry garlic and mint separately to avoid burning
  • Add salt before the first batch of herbs to preserve herb color
  • Do not cover the pot after adding herbs; let the soup simmer uncovered
  • Add noodles in two batches, stirring after each addition to prevent clumping

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can cause severe burns – handle frying pan with care
  • Boiling soup splashes – use a splatter guard if needed
  • Do not leave hot oil unattended while frying garlic and mint
