This recipe is a variation of the Tarator Bulgarian soup. Refreshing cold soup made from light yogurt with the addition of fresh cucumbers, nuts, herbs, garlic, and boiled rice – no doubt an interesting and easy to prepare dish. A little chopped walnuts give the soup extra nutrition, and a little garlic adds a touch of piquancy.
