Meatball soup from minced meat
Description
A hearty first course. In this case, the meatballs are made from minced chicken, but you can use regular meat mince as well. Semolina gives the mince a denser texture, but it won't affect the taste—trust me. By the way, if you prefer richer soups, prepare a broth in advance. As for other additions, everything depends on your taste. I made a light soup with vegetables and peas, but you can add your favorite grain or, for example, noodles. Serve with fresh herbs and sour cream.
