Rub the flour, egg and water between your palms to make ovmac grains about the size of vermicelli.
Spread the ovmac pieces on a tray and rest them for 5 minutes so they do not clump when they go into the pot.
Boil the meat stock and cooked green lentils over medium heat for 10 minutes.
Add the ovmac pieces gradually and cook for 10 minutes while stirring.
Turn the mint and red pepper flakes in butter for 30 seconds, then drizzle over the soup.
💡 Tip: Rubbing the dough into small pieces makes the soup feel more balanced on the spoon.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with mint butter drizzled over the top.
