I often cook meatballs in a soup stock. When the meat mixture is soft, it is easier to drop meatballs, using a spoon, into the boiling stock, rather than roll the meatballs by hands and fry them. It’s a very healthy way to cook. You can enjoy cooked meatballs with your favourite sauce, but I season the stock and enjoy the meatballs with the delicious soup. It’s a good idea to add some vegetables and noodles.

Suggestion: Add some Noodles to make this dish a filling meal. The photo below is the same Meatballs in soup with Harusame Noodles (Bean Thread Noodles). I seasoned the soup with Salt, White Pepper, Soy Sauce and Oyster Sauce. I added some Toasted Sesame Seeds and Crispy Chilli Oil on top.
