Meatball Soup with Potatoes and Carrots

With itty-bitty meatballs in carrot-potato soup, this is the perfect soup to warm you up in cold winter nights. Don’t forget to drizzle it with fresh lemon juice and freshly grounded blackpepper.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lb ground beef
• 2 onions
• 2 tablespoons rice
• 1 egg
• pinch salt
• pinch black pepper
• 2-3 tablespoons flour
  
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 1 carrot
• 2 potatoes
• 6 cups water

Recipe:

1. Knead the ground beef with one grated onion, egg white, rice, salt, and black pepper. Make walnut size meatball and roll them onto the tray of flour. Shack the tray gentle to cover the meatballs with flour uniformly.
2. Sautee finely chopped one onion with olive oil. Add tomato paste and sautee for couple more seconds. Dice peeled carrot and potatoes to same size as the meatballs. Add carrots and potatoes to the pan and add 6 cups of water and then bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and add the meatballs one by one so that they won’t stick to each other. Add salt to taste. Cook on low heat until the meatballs and vegetables are done.
