A tasty "doable" Russian recipe
Sunday, March 04, 2007
I just received this recipe through RusCuisine.com. Many times the recipes aren't really "doable", but this one sounds good! I'm just surprised there is no dill in it :o)

Potato soup with meatballs

Meatballs:
2/3 c raw veal
1/2 c bread crumbs
1/2 c milk
2 tbs butter
1 egg white, stifly beaten
salt
pepper

Soup:
3 tbs butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
6 large potatoes, peeled and diced
Water
2 to 3 c milk
Salt and pepper to taste

Chop or grind the meat and pound into a paste. Cook the bread crumbs and milk until they make a paste. Add the butter, beaten egg white and seasonings along with the meat. Make into small balls with your hands.
Saute the onions in the 1 tablespoon butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until softened. Add potatoes and just enough water to cook, about 1-2 cups. Season lightly with salt. Bring to a boil and add meatballs; cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Add the milk, remaining butter, salt and pepper to taste. Continue to cook over medium heat until hot. You may mash some of the potatoes to slightly thicken the soup.

Bon appetit,Olga Timokhina
