Last week I woke up craving a warm bowl of soup! There is nothing better than a bowl of homemade soup.
I had some ground meat in the refrigerator, so I thought about making meatball soup and after seeing the beautiful carrots sitting next to them, I decided to make a Carrots and Meatballs Soup. It was light, simple and delicious.
Great one pot meal! Loved it 🙂
Ingredients
(4-6 servings)
- 4 large carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
- 7 cups chicken or beef stock
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- 1 scallion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- Salt and pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Color or achiote
- Fresh cilantro for serving
- 1/2 pound beef and ground pork
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper
- 1/4 cup masarepa(pre-cooked cornmeal)
- 1 teaspoon sazon goya with azafran
Meatballs
Directions
- In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Then add the onions and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the onions are translucent. Add the garlic, scallions and cook for another 3 minutes.
- To make the meatballs: In a medium bowl, combine all the meatball ingredients and using your hands, mix well until combined. Divide meat mixture into equal portions and roll into balls with your hands. Place on a plate and set aside.
- Add the meatballs, carrots, cumin, color and stock to the pot. Bring to a boil. Then cover the pot and reduce the heat to medium- low and cook for about 30 to 40 minutes.
- Add fresh cilantro and serve.

Hola! Erica.
Estupenda receta. Me encantan las albondigas, aunque nunca las he tomado así en sopa o tipo consomé. Y la verdad es que siempre viene bien como un primer plato.
Sería posible que pusieras un traductor? Por favor.
Me sería mucho más fácil y cómodo el poder visitarte.
Un beso.
