This soup is so delicious and easy to make. I had been wanting to make it for a while, but was iffy about it because my son doesn't like the texture of potatoes for some reason! I still decided to give it a try because I had been craving a beefy soup! My son came home from school I serve him the soup, and the first thing he says, "ewww potatoes!". After asking and asking and asking, he finally decided to give it a try! "Mmmmh mommy it's so delicious!". Was what he said as he took another spoon full! Made me so happy! Another successful, easy and delicious one pot meal!
HOW TO MAKE ALBONDIGA SOUP
You will start by heating up your pan at medium heat and greasing it so it can be ready for the meat balls. Prepare the pound of ground beef adding whisked egg and all of the condiments mixing it all together and start shaping the meatballs. I like using two Tbsp of meat, it makes the perfect size meatball! Put meatballs to cook at medium heat and covered. Turn meatballs every 5 minutes, cook for 10-15 minutes total. You will then remove excess grease with a spoon, add water. potatoes, carrots, tomato sauce, lemon, knorr de res, all of condiments and cilantro. Mix mix mix, and let it cook covered and low medium heat for 25-30 minutes. Remove from heat, serve and enjoy!
