This is a famous family recipe that I make every Shabbos. You can also use ground fish or chicken instead of ground beef.

Ingredients

Meatballs

  • 1 and 1/2 pounds ground beef

  • 1/4 cup fresh cleaned parsley

  • 1/4 cup fresh cleaned cilantro

  • 1 onion

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Broth

  • 1 bag frozen baby peas

  • water

  • salt, to taste

Directions

1.

Using a food processor, mince the parsley, cilantro, and onion.

2.

In a mixing bowl, combine the meat and herb mixture and season with salt. Form into golf ball-size meatballs.

3.

In a large pot over medium flame, heat the oil and sauté the tomato paste for two minutes, until the oil turns an orange-red color. Add vegetables and cover by two inches with water. Bring to a boil.

4.

Reduce heat to medium-low and add meatballs. Simmer for one hour, covered.

5.

Serve hot with a side of rice.
