Step by step cooking tomato soup with meatballs, recipe with photo:
1. Season the minced meat with salt and black pepper and mix well with your hands, passing it through your fingers. Then hit it a few times, lift it up and throw it back into the bowl. This is necessary for the meat to release gluten, which will keep the meatballs in place and will not disintegrate in the soup. Otherwise, you will have to add an egg to the minced meat, and it can give the broth a cloudy shade. A detailed recipe for making meatballs can be found on the pages of the site using the search bar.
2. Peel the potatoes, wash, cut into cubes and place in a cooking pot. Add bay leaves and allspice peas.
3. Fill the potatoes with water and send them to the stove to boil. After boiling, reduce heat to low and cook for 7-10 minutes.
4. Wash the white cabbage, cut the required piece, chop it finely and send it to the pot with potatoes.
5. After 5 minutes, add the meatballs. Meat balls should only be placed in a well-boiling broth.
6. Place the tomato paste immediately after the meatballs. Season the soup with salt and black pepper and simmer for 10 minutes after simmering. At the end of cooking, you can add any spices and herbs. Pour the prepared tomato soup with meatballs into bowls and serve. You can put croutons in each portion, sprinkle the dish with cheese shavings, add sour cream, etc.
