Frikadellen Soup
meat easy soup
In today's recipe tiny Frikadellen are prepared in a different way. I would say this soup is a healthier way of cooking ground meat, since it is boiled not fried. The soup is simple, the only special skill you need is roll small meatballs out of ground meat.

international main course easy soup

There is actually no recipe to this post (everybody can boil potatoes, right?
