Cheese soup with vegetables and chicken meatballs

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Frozen cauliflower was used in our recipe, but, of course, its fresh version will not spoil the taste of the finished dish in any way. The melted cheese must first be placed in the freezer - this way it will be easier to work with it.

2. Step 2:

   

   Chop the parsley and dill as finely as possible. This greens will be part of the minced meat for meatballs, therefore it should be very small.

3. Step 3:

   

   Combine chopped greens, eggs, minced chicken and crumbled bread in one bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste.

4. Step 4:

   

   Mix the ingredients thoroughly until a homogeneous mass is formed. If it seems to you that the minced meat is too thin, add more bread crumbs or flour. If it is too dry, add a little water. The finished minced meat is sent to the refrigerator for half an hour.

5. Step 5:

   

   While the minced meat is infused in the cold, you can prepare other ingredients. We cut the leeks into thin rings, carrots and celery into thin strips.

6. Step 6:

   

   Peel the potatoes and cut them into quarters of circles. Make sure that the size of the pieces is not too large.

7. Step 7:

   

   Large cabbage inflorescences are divided into small ones.

8. Step 8:

   

   Cut frozen cheese into small cubes.

10. Step 9:

    

    After half an hour of minced meat in the refrigerator, we extract it and mold small balls - the prototype of future meatballs.

11. Step 10:

    

    Fry carrots and celery in vegetable oil until they soften.

12. Step 11:

    

    Add carrots and celery leeks and continue frying for another 2-3 minutes.

13. Step 12:

    

    Simultaneously with frying vegetables, bring water to a boil in a saucepan and put the melted cheese there. Mix it well until it completely dissolves and wait for the water to boil again.

14. Step 13:

    

    Put potatoes and cabbage in the resulting cheese broth. We are waiting for re-boiling.

15. Step 14:

    

    Add fried vegetables to potatoes and cabbage. Now you can add a little salt to our soup. Cook everything for 5-7 minutes.

16. Step 15:

    

    After the specified time, add the vermicelli to the pan, and then, one at a time, the meatballs. Carefully mix everything and let it boil for about 12-15 minutes. The finished dish is salted and peppered to taste. Bon appetit!
