Instructions

  1. Peel potatoes, carrot, and onion. Cut potatoes and onion and shred the carrot using a box grater.
  2. In a small bowl, combine meat, about ⅛ teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Mix it well and form little balls using a measuring spoon to make them about the same size. Set aside.
  3. In a medium pot, bring water to a boil. Once water is boiling, add the chopped potatoes, reduce heat to medium level and let simmer for 5-6 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, using a small skillet, heat up the oil and add the cut onion. Sauté for a couple of minutes until soft and translucent. Add the carrots. Sauté further until carrots are soft. Turn off the heat and set aside.
  5. Once the potatoes have been cooking for about 5 minutes, add the rice and cook for additional 5-6 minutes.
  6. Add the meatballs and simmer everything until the potatoes are cooked through and meat is done (about 5 minutes).
  7. Add the sautéed onion and carrot mixture to the pot.
  8. Add the dill, parsley, and basil. Note: these are optional, but use at least one of these if possible.
  9. Add salt and pepper to taste. (I used a total of 3/4 teaspoon salt).
  10. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Note: The herbs give a lot of flavor to the soup. I recommend using at least one of these. I had 1 tablespoon frozen dill, a bunch of fresh parsley and a handful of fresh basil. Use dry herbs if it's all you have.
