Savta Shoshana described this Jewish Yemenite medicinal recipe as “nature’s antibiotic,” claiming that it strengthens the immune system, and cures sore throats and sinus and lung infections. It also makes for a nutritious breakfast.

  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 2-4

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup sour cream or eshel (a buttermilk-like product)
  • 13-15 crushed garlic cloves
  • 3 Tbsp plain white flour (see Notes)
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 tomatoes (the freshest you can find), grated by hand
  • 2 tsp hawaij (optional)
  • strips of bread (to your taste)

Instructions

  1. Mix all the ingredients together. Serve immediately. 

Notes

  • This recipe does not keep in the fridge, so it should be eaten straight away with strips of bread for a healthy, nutritious breakfast. 
  • You can precook your flour in the microwave, oven or stove using any of these methods.
