It is simply impossible to force children to eat soup, they with all the fibers of their souls avoid this liquid food, but if it contains meatballs, as, for example, in the presented children's soup with meatballs, then from a plate of such a dish they will not will refuse. That is why make minced meatballs mixed with spices and a chicken egg in advance and freeze them in freezer to always have on hand the necessary semi-finished product for preparing a fragrant first hot.
The dish is being prepared in only 25-30 minutes. The meat balls are added frozen to the broth, so you don't have to waste time defrosting them. Do not forget about fresh herbs and various spices - they make the taste of the dish brighter and more colorful. It is advisable to chop carrots and onions as small as possible - these are the ingredients that children do not like most in soup.
Ingredients:
Carrots - 1 pc.
Onions - 1 pc.
Potatoes - 4 pcs.
Meatballs - 250 g
Water - 1.5 l
Salt and pepper to taste
Greens - 0.5 bunch
Bay leaf - 3 pcs.
How to cook:
1. Peel the potato tubers, rinse under running water and cut out any small lesions, if any. Chop the washed root vegetables into medium-sized cubes and place along with the bay leaves in the saucepan / saucepan / cauldron in which you are going to cook the soup.
2. Peel the onions, rinse and chop into small cubes. Place the slices in a container with the potatoes. It is permissible to replace this type of onion with another, for example, red, shallot, green, etc. are suitable.
3. Pour in hot water, leaving at least 5 cm to the edges of the container so that it does not splash out during boiling. Place the pot on the stove and turn on maximum heat. Bring to a boil, remove the resulting foam with a slotted spoon. Reduce heat and cook for about 10-12 minutes.
4. At this time, peel the carrots, rinse them under running water. Grate with coarse or fine mesh. Since children do not welcome this vegetable in soup, it must be chopped as much as possible. Add the carrot mixture to the pot.
5. After the carrots, send the meatballs, you can directly frozen, but one at a time, so that they immediately "seize". At the same time, the broth should boil slightly, but not at the maximum fire, since a very boiling liquid, when the meat balls are immersed in it, will simply turn them back into minced meat.
6. After dipping the last meatball, cook the soup for another 5-7 minutes. Then add chopped, pre-washed dill or parsley. Protome the dish for exactly 1 minute and turn off the heat, let it “reach” for 5 minutes under the lid.
Pour hot children's soup with meatballs into bowls and serve with bread or croutons - as the kids love. You can add a little sour cream to the hot.
