Russian soup with meatballs
Description
A hearty first course. One of the most beloved homemade soups is meatball soup. Meatballs are most commonly used as a soup ingredient. Many people prepare meatballs in advance and freeze them. This saves considerable time later: making soup with meatballs will take no more than fifteen minutes. Juicy meatballs can nicely complement soup made according to any recipe—vegetable, grain-based, meat or fish soup. Serve the soup hot.
