Delicious soup with peas, meatballs

How to make meatball soup

Our Russian soup with meatballs has a progenitor from Italy and Azerbaijan. True, in Azerbaijan it is called “Dovga” and is cooked with kefir.
And in Italy, for some reason, it is called "wedding" soup, but they are not treated to it at weddings. It's interesting somehow.

So, the highlight of this soup, of course, is the meatballs.

They are all cooked differently.

But there are a few points that will reveal their taste and make the cooking process faster.

First, add cumin to the meat before grinding. The meat will become much more flavorful.

Secondly, to make the minced meat juicier, add water if you grind with a blender. Of course, it is not necessary to pour it into a meat grinder. Water will not only nourish the fibers a little, but also help the motor grind the pieces.

It is better to form meatballs with wet hands.

If you have balls of different sizes, then you should not worry, no one said that they must be round and the same.

The meat must be salted.

If you have minced meat from several types of meat, then you can add an egg to it to compact the mass.

And, if you like to use minced chicken, then add a tablespoon of semolina, which will make dryish meat more juicy.

In order not to get minced porridge in the soup, you need to lower the meat mass into boiling water.

The balls will float as they cook.

Well, what will be the components of the soup, it's up to you. Here are a few recipes, choose what you like best.

Soup with meatballs in a slow cooker

This soup is considered more for children, and when you have children, then perhaps there is a slow cooker. Personally, she just saved me. Pawn food and go for a walk with the baby. We return hungry, and everything is ready, fragrant and hot.

So, in this recipe, we do not fry vegetables, so again, this is a children's soup.

Ingredients:

• 4 potatoes
• Half a kilo of minced meat
• 1 bulb
• 1 carrot
• 1 tomato
• A little butter
• 2 garlic cloves
• Basil, dill
• Water 2-2.5 l

Add a couple of cloves of garlic, pepper and salt to the minced meat.

We will cook the soup immediately with herbs. It is important to add it at the very beginning, and not at the end, the taste depends on it.

We cut vegetables and herbs.

In a slow cooker, everything is cooked at the same time!

If this soup is cooked on fire, then the vegetables are laid in order.

Lay vegetables and sprinkle with basil and other spices.

And here we add butter, which will give the broth a creamy delicate taste.

You can add tomato, tomato paste.

Fill everything with water and set the mode. I have it called “Soup”, there is also the “Cooking” mode.

Any mince is suitable. You can mix beef, pork and lamb (if available). Chicken is more dietary, and if the husband is a hunter, then cook it from venison or elk. By the way, I was treated to soup from such meat, it seemed that it was a little harsh, but I didn’t catch much difference with the types already tested.

Soup with meatballs and vermicelli: a step by step recipe with a photo

To increase the nutritional value, vermicelli or pasta is added to this soup. I do not accept pasta in soups, and always replace them with noodles, vermicelli, pasta or cobwebs. But they are listed in the recipes.

By the way, this recipe is very close to Italian. And, if you freeze vegetables, then this habit will be very useful for you.

Ingredients:

• Chicken broth 2 l
• 2 carrots
• Bulb
• tomato
• 3 potatoes
• string beans
• One bell pepper.
• Macaroni, pasta, durum wheat vermicelli

For meatballs:

• 500 gr beef
• 1 bulb
• 1 egg
• 2 tbsp semolina
• bunch of parsley
• 3 tablespoons grated cheese
• Basil, salt and pepper

1. We make meatballs: we scroll the meat in a meat grinder into minced meat along with onions, then we drive an egg, semolina, spices, chopped parsley and grated cheese into this mass.
2. Now we form balls, as in the photo. Wet your hands with water so that the meat does not stick and roll the balls or squeeze uniform pieces through your fingers.

3. Now we are preparing the soup itself. First, fry the vegetables (onions, tomatoes and onions) in hot vegetable oil.

4. Pour potatoes into a saucepan with broth. After boiling, cook the potatoes for 1-2 minutes.

5. Then add pepper and chopped beans. Cook for a couple of minutes and add frying.

6. We do not add frying in advance, because it contains tomatoes that contain acid. And she, in turn, does not allow the potatoes to cook until tender.

7. After boiling, add vermicelli or pasta.

8. Dip the meatballs into the boiling soup.

9. You need to cook for another quarter of an hour.

For flavor, put a little garlic, a mixture of peppers, chopped herbs into the broth.

We leave the soup to infuse, and already in the plates we sprinkle with grated cheese.

The soup will become thick, hearty and very fragrant.

How to cook delicious minced chicken meatball soup

Chicken mince is more affordable than mixed. It can be mixed with pork and then you get a more tender mass. But not everyone always has pork in stock.

You can take ready-made minced meat, or you can make it from chicken breast, if it suits you like a children's menu.

For meatballs:

• 200 gr minced chicken
• bunch of greenery
• 1 egg
• 1 st. semolina spoon
• Salt pepper

1. Add greens, semolina and an egg to the minced meat. We are waiting for the semolina to swell a little. It will make the meatballs more holistic and tender. It will also allow dry chicken meat to retain moisture.

2. Cut smaller onions and carrots and fry in oil.

3. Add potatoes and fry to the broth (you can not fry the vegetables, add raw ones).

4. We lower the meat balls into the gurgling broth and reduce the power of the mode to medium, otherwise the broth will not be transparent and cloudy.

5. Pour vermicelli or "cobweb" into the cooked soup.

Step-by-step recipe for soup with meatballs, rice and potatoes

This recipe is more masculine because the soup is thicker and more nutritious. Yes, and the easiest. Anyone can cook it, and a man, and a teenager, and an inexperienced hostess.

Ingredients:

• Carrot
• Potato
• Spices
• Onions for minced meat and frying

1. Add potatoes to cold water and cook until boiling, then add washed rice.

2. Now we prepare the minced meat: add chopped onion, spices to the total mass and form meat rounds. Try scooping the mince with a teaspoon to get them about the same size.

3. The soup is boiled for five minutes and the meat ingredient is lowered into boiling water.

4. We roast and put it in the soup.

5. At the end of cooking, remember about dried dill and a couple of bay leaves.

Remember that different spices open up the soup.

Potato soup with meatballs (with potatoes and vermicelli)

Potatoes and vermicelli do not always go together, but in our family they cook just like that. In general, soup without potatoes is somehow incomplete for us. It's like there's nothing to eat in it.

Ingredients:

• 300 gr mince
• Water 2.5 l
• 1 carrot
• 1 bulb
• 2 potatoes
• Vegetable oil
• Salt pepper
• Macaroni or vermicelli half a glass
• 3 bay leaves

1. Put the water to boil and then cut the vegetables: three carrots, and cut the onions and potatoes.

2. Pour a spoonful of vegetable oil into the pan and send the carrots and onion cubes to pass through.

3. Add spices and salt to minced meat. Very fragrant meatballs are obtained with zira.

4. Ready-made balls should be lowered into a boiling broth to prevent them from turning into porridge.

5. We are waiting for the meatballs to float, which means that the turn of the chopped potatoes has come. After boiling, add pasta or vermicelli. Importantly, we are not talking about a cobweb here.

6. If you have a cobweb, then it is added at the end of cooking, when the soup has not cooled down yet. She's got enough warmth. If you boil it for even five minutes, it will turn into porridge.

7. Then we add roasting and cook it all for another 10 minutes on medium heat.

8. Add spices, peas, dried dill.

As a result, the ingredient composition of this soup can be changed at your discretion and to the taste of family members.

Children will be interested in finding colorful or curly pasta in the soup.

You can add a stirred egg to it at the moment of boiling at the end of cooking. We have soups with such an additive called "soup with clouds."

The main thing is that the temperature is such that the protein has time to curl up.

Or, when serving, sprinkle the soup with grated cheese, such as parmesan, it will also immediately become an unusual dish.

Soup with meatballs- a simple homemade soup, the preparation of which will require a few ingredients and time. It is quite easy to prepare, so even a novice hostess can make it. And if you prepare meatballs in advance and freeze them in the freezer, this soup will generally become 5 minutes long. By the way, small children are very fond of meatballs.

Ingredients

• minced meat (beef + pork) 400 g
• water 1.5 l
• potato 300 g
• carrot 150 g
• onion 150 g
• salt taste
• ground black pepper taste
• dill taste
• parsley taste
• green onion taste

If you do not make minced meat yourself, then you can buy it in the store. I think it's called "home". But it is better, of course, to always make minced meat from a real piece of meat.

Cooking

We prepare all the ingredients. Wash meat and vegetables thoroughly.

If you bought minced meat in a store, then you skip this step. And we scroll through a meat grinder 200g of pork and 200g of beef. Salt, pepper and mix into a homogeneous mass. I usually spend 2-3 pinches of salt on this amount of minced meat. It would be nice to knead the minced meat so that the meatballs keep their shape better and do not fall apart during cooking. So we do. Many housewives, either because of a lack of experience, or because of a desire to experiment, add everything to the minced meat: onions, butter, carrots, parmesan, chopped greens, finely chopped bell peppers. But we should not forget that these are not cutlets and not hedgehogs, these are meatballs and we will have them only from meat.

Finely chop the onion, three carrots on a coarse grater. Pour a little vegetable oil into the pan, warm it up and send chopped vegetables into it. Fry until the onion is golden brown.

Cut the peeled potatoes into small cubes.

We begin to form meatballs. We make balls of the same size and shape. And put them on the board at a small distance from each other. To make it easier to roll the meatballs, you can slightly moisten your hands with water. As a result, we get about 25 meatballs.

Pour 1.5 liters of water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add salt and ground black pepper to the water to taste. Put meatballs into boiling water and bring to a boil again. If foam begins to form, then it must be removed with a tablespoon. Immediately add the potatoes to the meatballs in the pan. Together they will not be so boring to cook.

After 10 minutes, add the fried vegetables to the pan. Stir, bring the soup to a boil and turn off. Cover tightly with a lid and let it brew for 10-20 minutes. While the soup is cooling, cut the greens: dill, parsley and green onions.

Soup with meatballs ready to serve on plates. To taste, add greens to each serving, as well as, if you like, a good spoonful of sour cream. I didn’t get sour cream, as it was eaten by a cunning cat who was sitting in ambush and while I was frying onions and carrots, I did my red thing. Bon appetit!

Fragrant hot soup with meatballs, well, what else can warm your soul and body better? This delicious soup is loved by everyone from young to old. Cooking it is not at all difficult, as it might seem at first glance. In addition, this soup consists of simple and inexpensive products, but nevertheless, thanks to its zest in the form of soft and juicy meatballs, it is able to heartily feed and please the household. All of them will run to the table themselves so that they don’t even have to call! Very tasty and satisfying!

How to make minced meatballs for soup recipe with step by step photos

Cooking:

1. The taste of ready-made meatballs largely depends on the meat from which they are made. Of course, you need to use high-quality fresh meat. At the same time, the meat should not be fatty, because it will leave an ugly greasy coating on the surface of the soup.

It is best to use a mixture of several types of meat for meatballs, but you can cook them with pure pork, beef, lamb or chicken. Scroll a suitable piece of meat through a meat grinder. It is even advisable to pass it through a meat grinder twice, so that the minced meat is the most tender.

2. To make meatballs juicy, you can add onions to them. For two hundred grams of meat, half a small onion will be enough.

The onion must either be very finely chopped or grated on a fine grater (this is the best option). Add the onion to the minced meat, salt and add ground black pepper or a mixture of peppers to give the meatballs a richer taste.

If you are using completely dry meat or just want to make the meatballs as juicy as possible, you can pour a tablespoon of melted butter into the minced meat.

3. Now mix the minced meat thoroughly. This should be done not with a spoon, but with your hands, so that all the ingredients are most evenly distributed.

You can even beat off the minced meat. To do this, pick up the mincemeat and toss it hard onto the cutting board, repeat about ten times.

4. After kneading the minced meat, you can begin to form meatballs. Immediately place a plate of water next to you and wet your palms so that the meatballs do not stick to your hands.

Using a teaspoon, take a small amount of minced meat. Meatballs should not be large, the most suitable size is 1.5-2.5 centimeters.

5. Now roll the minced meat between your palms to make a round ball. Put the finished ball on a plate, moisten your hands again with water and roll the same balls from the rest of the minced meat.

Try to make them all the same size.

6. Pour water into a saucepan and boil it. Add some salt and bay leaf to boiling water. Put the meatballs into the water and wait for it to boil again. Now make the fire a little smaller. When foam appears on the surface, be sure to remove it with a spoon.

7. Boil the meatballs for seven to ten minutes, depending on the size of the balls. After that, carefully remove the meatballs from the broth with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate.

Now cook soup with potatoes and vegetables on this broth, and return the meatballs to the pan when the soup is completely ready. Thanks to this, the soup will turn out delicious, and the meatballs in it will remain whole, beautiful and tender.

As for how to make minced meatballs for soup with different flavors, if you wish, you can add grated cheese, fried carrots or fried onions to minced meat, change the composition of spices and combine types of meat.
