- Meatball Escarole Soup
- (Zuppa di Scarole e Polpettine)
-
|
-
- Ingredients:
-
1 large head escarole
1/2 lb ground beef
1 garlic clove finely minced
1/2 cup grated parmigiano cheese
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 small egg
6 cups chicken stock
-
- Directions:
-
- Clean escarole.
-
- Shred into bite sized pieces. Set aside.
Prepare the Meatballs:
- Mix together ground beef, garlic, parmigiano cheese, bread crumbs, parsley, and salt.
-
- Break in egg. Mix well.
-
- Shape into meatballs the size of marbles. Use a delicate touch when rolling. Too much pressure packs the meat. Set aside.
Combine chicken broth and escarole and bring to a boil. The escarole will cook down.
-
- When soup is boiling and escarole has wilted, drop in meatballs one at a time.
-
- When all meatballs have been added, stir gently to combine ingredients.
Reduce heat, cover and cook until meatballs are done, about 5 to 10 minutes, depending on size.
Serve with exuberant spoonfuls of grated parmigiano cheese. Serves 4 to 6.
That's it!
