Honestly, it's better than most restaurants that I've tried. Authentic albondigas are a quick and popular tapas dish that can also work well as a mid-week meal for all the family served with rice or pasta. My albondigas recipe is made from minced beef and pork blended with fried onions, cumin and smokey paprika and shaped into large Spanish meatballs that are slowly cooked in a rich tomato sauce made. The idea is to flavor the meatballs with fresh mint and then let them simmer in a sweet tomato sauce.

Steps to make Albondigas:
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. Mix ground meat, cooked rice, garlic, 1/4 c parsley, egg, salt, 1 tsp paprika, cumin, pepper, oregano, and olive oil in a bowl using a fork. Portion mixture with a 1/4 cup scoop and use your (wet) hands to shape into round meatballs then place onto prepared baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven until brown, about 15 minutes.
  3. Pour chicken stock into large saucepan. Add potatoes, carrots, zucchini, onion and tomatoes and bring to boil. Reduce to a medium simmer, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
  4. Transfer meatballs to broth. Turn heat to high. Once broth returns to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook 20 minutes or until meatballs are no longer pink in center and vegetables are tender.
  5. Serve over rice and sprinkle cilantro over top. Add avocado to top (optional).
  6. All done! Enjoy ๐Ÿ™‚

This tomato-mint combo doesn't make many appearances in Mexican cuisine, but it's surprisingly refreshing so don't let its rarity scare you off. Albondigas soup, or meatball soup, is the Mexican version of the classic meatball soup dish. It features beef meatballs cooked in a very light and flavorful broth full of my favorite veggies. It's been quite hot and humid in Pittsburgh lately and this soup has been a godsend. The broth is light enough to enjoy on a hot, sweaty day.
