- 1 Green Onion (1 bunch (also called Scallions) white and green divided and chopped)
- 2 Egg(s)

- Salt and Black Pepper (as per taste)
Directions
-
1. Combine chicken stock, water, pasta and green peas in a heavy bottom non-reactive pan or Dutch oven, cover and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Uncover and boil for half as long as directed by the pasta package cooking directions about 3 to 4 minutes.

2. Now add scallion whites and cook for about 1 minute. Crack eggs in a separate bowl, whisk till egg yolks are well blended with egg whites. Reduce heat to low, while stirring the soup constantly, slowly add eggs and then cook for 2 minutes or till cooked egg appears on surface of soup like feathery strands.

Savita's Notes:
You can replace semolina paste with whole wheat pasta and replace chicken broth with vegetable broth to it make even more light and healthy.© Chef De Home.
