Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to cook rice soup with meatballs and broccoli? First of all, prepare all the above products. Minced meat can be pork, beef, chicken or mixed. Add a little salt and your favorite dry spices to the minced meat. I used garlic powder, a mixture of ground pepper and a pinch of dried basil. If desired, add half a small onion, chopped as finely as possible. Knead the minced meat well.

2. STEP 2

   

   Peel the potatoes, onions and carrots. Rinse all vegetables in clean water. Roll the minced meat into small balls.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the potatoes into cubes or wedges. Rinse the rice several times until the water is clean.

4. STEP 4

   

   The soup can be cooked in broth or plain water. So, pour the desired amount of water into the pan and bring to a boil. Add potatoes, meatballs and rice. Remove the resulting foam with a spoon, reduce the heat to moderate and cook the soup until the potatoes and meatballs are ready, this will take you 15 to 20 minutes. At this time, prepare the frying. In a frying pan in vegetable oil, fry chopped onions and carrots.

5. STEP 5

   

   Divide the broccoli into small florets. Cut the tomatoes into cubes. I used cherry tomatoes for the recipe. They are slightly sweetened, which added a special twist to the finished dish. If necessary, remove the skins from the tomatoes in advance.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add the roast, broccoli and tomatoes to the pan. Add salt to taste. Over high heat, wait until it boils and turn off the pan after a few seconds. Leave the soup to simmer on the hot stove, covered, for about 10-15 minutes. During this time, the broccoli and tomatoes will be ready.
