HOMEMADE ALBONDIGAS SOUP



Homemade Albondigas Soup image

This soup reminds me of when I was young, staying home from school. My grandmother would make this for me. It is so good and flavorful. It is great for a cold rainy day, or any day you feel like it. You can substitute any of the veggies for ones you like better. My grandmother would also make Mexican rice and scoop some into my bowl to make it even better!

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound ground beef
1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped
1 small onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 pinch garlic salt
1 pinch onion powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
4 large carrots, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
3 stalks celery, cut into 1 inch pieces
3 potatoes, cubed

Steps:

  • Place the ground beef, 1/2 of the cilantro, 1/2 of the chopped onion, the garlic, garlic salt, and onion powder in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and mix gently until combined. Form the meat mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs.
  • Spray a large skillet with nonstick spray, and brown the meatballs carefully over medium-high heat; remove the meatballs and set aside (the meatballs do not need to be fully cooked; they will finish cooking in the soup). Cook and stir the remaining onion in the same skillet over medium-low heat until translucent, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour the chicken broth into a large pot, and stir in the onion; add the carrots, celery, and potatoes. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are nearly tender, about 15 minutes. Add the meatballs and the remaining cilantro; simmer for 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground turkey
½ cup long grain rice
1 large egg
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon Mccormick® ground cumin
¼ cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup white onion, medium, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon oregano, (preferably Mexican oregano)
½ teaspoon Mccormick® ground cumin
1 dried ancho chile
2 large carrots
2 stalks celery, chopped in 1/2 in(1.24 cm)
¼ lb red potato, chopped into ½-inch (1.24 cm) pieces
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
2 cans diced tomato
4 cups unsalted chicken stock
lime juice, to taste
avocado, sliced
radish, thinly shaved
fresh cilantro, chopped
queso fresco, crumbled
serrano pepper, thinly sliced
Lime wedge
hot sauce

Steps:

  • Make the meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground turkey, rice, egg, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin, and cilantro and gently mix together until well combined. Use an ice cream scoop or your hands to shape the meatballs into 1½-inch balls, about the size of a golf ball. You should have about 25 meatballs.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the canola oil and warm for about 1 minute. Working in batches, add the meatballs in a single layer and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer to a baking sheet and repeat with the remaining meatballs.
  • Make the soup: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the onion to the pot, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom with a wooden spoon. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 2-3 minutes. Add the cumin, oregano, and ancho chile and continue cooking for another minute, until fragrant.
  • Add the carrots, celery, potatoes, salt, pepper, tomatoes and their juices, and stock and stir to combine. Cover the pot and let the soup simmer for 30-35 minutes, until the vegetables have softened.
  • Add the meatballs and cook, covered, until cooked through, 15-20 minutes.
  • Season the soup with salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste.
  • Immediately ladle the soup into bowls, discarding the ancho chile. Top with avocado, radishes, cilantro, queso fresco, serrano peppers, and a generous squeeze of lime juice. Serve with hot sauce on the side.
  • Enjoy!
