Steps

1 hour, 20 minutes

1

Mix the ground meat with 2 eggs, a small handful of flour, salt, rice, mint, and pepper to taste. Combine well.
2

Bring the water to a boil. Once hot, shape the meat mixture into balls and add them to the pot.
3

Hard-boil 3 eggs, cut them into quarters, and you can mix them into the meatballs as you form them.
4

Add salt and the chopped vegetables to the pot. Let simmer for 30 minutes.
5

Meanwhile, blend the onion and tomatoes, then sauté them in 1 tablespoon of oil along with the serrano peppers and oregano.
6

After the meatballs have cooked for 30 minutes, add the sautéed mixture to the pot. Cover and simmer for another 15 minutes. Check that the meatballs are fully cooked; if not, cook for another 15 minutes. Done!
