How to cook meatball and noodle soup
I would like to note right away that it is better to use minced chicken, it makes the broth beautiful and takes less time to cook. But, if necessary, it can be easily replaced with any other.
While the water is boiling, prepare the minced meat. Salt/pepper to taste, add a little onion (the amount depends on your desire). Meatballs are usually made purely from meat, they are small in size and when in the broth they will not be dry.
Before the water boils, we have time to prepare the potatoes by cutting them into cubes as in the photo.
Dip the formed chicken meatballs into boiling water. Form small meat balls with wet palms. Reduce heat to low to obtain a nice, clear, clean broth. We are waiting for it to boil.
Now that our hands are free and we have time, let’s prepare the frying. Chop the onion and grate the carrots.
Onions and carrots are medium-small in size. If they are large, then halves are enough, otherwise the soup will be too vegetable, and the sweetness of the carrots will affect its taste.
Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan. We do not fry the roast too much, but lightly - as in the photo.
The water with the meatballs has boiled, add the potatoes. There is not much noise (stumps) in the broth, but if it appears, it must be carefully removed.
Add the frying mixture to the soup that has boiled after adding the potatoes.
After 10 minutes, add salt and vermicelli.
Boil for no more than 5 minutes and remove from heat.
Meatball and noodle soup has a beautiful broth, enticing aroma and is sure to whet your appetite. Using a step-by-step recipe, always prepare a healthy first course, tasty and quick.
