Cook the soup for 12 minutes, keeping the leeks slightly firm.
12 min12:00 - 8
Add the salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley, then serve hot.
💡 Tip: Do not add the leeks at the beginning; Turkish leeks soften quickly, so adding them near the end keeps their shape and green color in the soup.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve cawl in deep bowls as a winter meal with sourdough bread and aged kashar slices if desired.
