SPICY ALBONDIGAS
I grew up eating this soup and after trying dozens of recipes I have combined them to come up with this dish. The flavors are rich, the meatballs are tender and the broth is good enough to drink by itself. Serve with warm flour tortillas.

SPICY SPANISH ALBONDIGAS (MEATBALLS)
These little meatballs have a great kick and so much more flavor than traditional meatballs. Serve with additional Tabasco for sprinkling, and some very cold beer! When we were in Spain, San Miguel was the local favorite beer, but Dos Equis would be just as good!

Steps:
- For the broth: On medium heat, in a pot, saute the onion, garlic and cumin seeds in the olive oil until the onions are translucent. Add tomatoes and continue to simmer slow and low. It's ready when the tomatoes are cooked down and it looks saucy. You may need to add a little broth. At this point, either transfer tomato sauce to a blender jar with the chipotles, or if you have a hand-held blender, throw the chipotles in the pot and blend there with a little broth. When your tomato sauce is smooth, transfer back to the pot, add all of the broth, carrots, potatoes and fresh herbs, S&P, cover, and bring to a steady simmer for about 20 minutes or so. (I like to add zucchini, and kale if I have it. Add it a little later though.)
- Meatballs: In a large bowl, combine ground beef and pork, rice, oregano, egg, S&P with your hands. It's fun. Form into balls, size is up to you. I wouldn't recommend larger than baseball sized or they might fall apart. Gently add the meatballs to the soup one at a time. When they are good and buoyant and firm, they're done. Serve in deep bowls. Have fresh, chopped white onion, cilantro, lime wedges and chopped avocado for a garnish, and of course, plenty of warm corn tortillas! ¡Buen provecho!
SPICY ALBONDIGAS SOUP
I've been told this Albondigas soup is better than any Mexican restaurant. If you like spicy, you'll love this recipe. The addition of serrano pepper adds heat, but is not overwhelming. I prefer to use Jasmine rice as it is sticky and helps hold the meatballs together better. I have prepared this several ways, by dropping the...
