Heat the half of the butter in a pan and sauté minced onions, chili pepper and Charleston pepper, stirring constantly. Add tomato paste and sauté some more. Pour 4 cups of water into the pan and boil. Then add washed einkorn wheat into the pan. Season with salt and then add all washed and chopped greens. When it’s ready add the ayran and keep stirring ingredients gently till the mixture comes to a boil again.
