Instructions
Meatballs
- Grate onions and garlic finely and put them in a bowl together with the other ingredients.
- Mix the minced meat well and form small meatballs, which you fry in a pan with a bit of butter.
Soup
- Cut onions, garlic, and parsnips into coarse pieces and sauté them for 5 minutes in a pot with a bit of butter.
- Add all other ingredients (except the cream cheese) to the pot and let everything simmer for 10-15 minutes, until the parsnips are fairly tender.
- Simultaneously, set your bulgur or pasta to boil in another pot.
- When the parsnips are tender, blend the pot’s contents into a fine, smooth tomato soup. If you find the soup too thick, just add a little more water.
- Add the cream cheese to the soup and stir until the cheese is melted.
- Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper.
- Drain your bulgur/pasta and add it to the soup along with the meatballs. Warm through for 2 minutes and serve your soup with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of parsley.
