Meggy Leves (Cherry Soup) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 c. fresh cherries
4 c. water
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. cloves
1/2 to 1 c. sugar
3 Tbsp. flour
3/4 c. milk/cream

Preparation

Bring to boil the cherries, water and spices.
Add sugar to taste according to the sweetness of the cherries.
(I start with 1/2 cup of sugar and add an additional 1/2 cup if cherries are unpitted or tart.)
Boil cherries for 20 minutes or until tender. When done, blend flour and milk; add to cherry mixture while boiling, just long enough to mix.
Serve cold.
