Kakavia

Summary
A flavourful fish soup.

Ingredients

• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 2 lbs of fish, 1/2 small, 1/2 large, gutted and scaled
• 1 cup of olive oil
• 3 medium, white onions, sliced
• 1 pinch of pepper
• 1 pinch of salt
• 3 medium tomatoes, sliced

Directions

• Put the smaller fish in a pot with enough water to cover them to boil.
• Add the olive oil, the sliced onions and the sliced tomatoes.  
• After boiling them for about 30-45 minutes, strain them through a strainer, making sure the meat of fish is well pressed. 
• Return to the heat and now add the larger pieces of fish to it. 
• Add water to cover.  
• After about 1/4 hour, remove it from the heat and slowly take out each large fish and remove the bones, head and fins. 
• Take a full egg and mix it with a fork.  
• Add a little bit of the water from the soup and keep on mixing. 
• Add a small cupful of cooled soup to the egg mixture.
• Once again add it to the soup pot and add the lemon juice.
• Heat the soup before serving, but not too much, otherwise the fish will be over cooked
